Dease Lake Community Funds Survey

Dease Lake Community Funds Survey
Introduction

The Dease Lake Community Funds are intended to support long-term infrastructure, recreation, and community wellbeing that benefit Dease Lake.

The Community Funds Committee includes representatives from Tahltan Central Government, the Iskut Band, and the Tahltan Band, and works to ensure funds are used in ways that reflect community priorities.

This survey is being shared to help guide future planning and decisions. It is open to community members who live in Dease Lake. The survey should take about 5–10 minutes to complete.
