1. Survey Introduction

The Squaxin Island Tribe is working to update its Hazard Mitigation Plan. In order to help us identify and plan for natural disasters, we need your assistance! The following questionnaire is designed to help us gather information about disaster issues, and to find out from you about areas vulnerable to various types of natural disasters.  This data also helps us update our Hazard Mitigation Plan, enabling us to qualify for pre- and post-disaster assistance. 

The survey should take less than 10 minutes to complete and is anonymous, unless you decide to provide contact information at the end. Please take a few moments to answer the following questions to the best of your ability (you may not know the answers to all of the questions, and that is perfectly fine!). If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about the process for developing the Tribal Hazard Mitigation Plan, or this survey, please feel free to call Squaxin Island Tribe's (SIT) Emergency Manager, Kelly Guy at (360) 463-8505.

The Squaxin Island Tribe's Planning Team thanks you for taking the time to participate in this information-gathering process.
