We recently developed a survey to serve that purpose and we are asking members to help us by completing the survey. If you enter your name and e-mail address when prompted at the end of the survey, you may receive information about the Accra, Ghana project and you will be entered into a drawing to win a free registration to the 2014 Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C. Please only complete the survey once to ensure the accuracy and validity of the information collected. This survey is available to members only.
