Welcome to the Squamish Community Foundation’s 2011 Vital Signs Report home page. Our Vital Signs report presents data on 11 issue areas relevant to the measuring of Squamish’s health and vitality as a community. Input from the community and issue area experts has been a material element of the creation of a meaningful report.
The purpose of the Vital Signs report is to educate and inform individuals and stakeholders in the community. The Squamish Community Foundation will make direct use of the contents of the report in guiding our granting efforts to best strategic advantage. It is the aim of the Squamish Community Foundation that other will also use it to help target the most pressing needs to improve our community’s weaknesses and build on our strengths.
Producing a relevant and meaningful report take both money and lots of volunteer hours. We sincerely thank both the Vancouver Foundation for their SPARK research grant and the District of Squamish for having the vision to provide a grant in aide to make the report from such a relatively small community possible.
The Squamish Vital Signs report provides pure statistical data. The grades represent the graders reactions to that data. Many may disagree with the grades, which is helpful for the stimulation of the dialogue that will have to come back to the real numbers and cultivate strategies to address and improve them.
Our report may be downloaded here or from our main website.
