DOH’s CORONA survey will help leaders plan for recovery. DOH created the Community Recovery-Oriented Needs Assessment (CORONA) survey to better understand the impact of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) on Washington residents. The voluntary survey asks questions related to behavioral, economic, social and emotional impacts and needs. Health departments across the state will use the results of the survey to help our communities recover.
The online survey is available in six languages: English, Somali, Spanish, Russian, Tagalog, and Vietnamese. To take the survey by phone, call 855-530-5787. Interpretative services are available.
More information is available on DOH’s CORONA survey web page.
