Mental Health Voter Empowerment Project

2004 NYS CANDIDATE QUESTIONNAIRE

 The Mental Health Voter Empowerment Project serves to register, educate and encourage  consumers of mental health services to participate in their democracy and vote. As we  register hundreds of individuals in your community, we ask you to assist us in helping to  educate them by providing them the opportunity to better understand your position on  issues crucial to them.

We would appreciate it if you would take a few minutes to answer the following questions. Please limit yourself to 100 words or less for each answer. Any answers exceeding the 100 word limit will be ended at the 100 th word, regardless of context.

In order to guarantee the security of each survey, we have provided you with a unique user name and password, which are provided for you in your cover letter.

Answers will be provided in a Voter Education Guide that will be made available to our affiliate network, members of the Mental Health Voter Empowerment Project, the media, and anyone who requests it. The deadline for submission is October 1, 2004. If you choose to not return the questionnaire or choose not to answer a particular question, a note will be made to that effect next to your name in the final document.
