HCRS places high value on client feedback and feels strongly that the opinions of those we serve are a critical factor in our strategic program planning and review. In addition to on-going feedback from our Program Standing Committee members and other community forums, HCRS also invites written feedback on an annual basis from our clients through a more formalized survey instrument.
