NATCA Spouse Group Survey

Share your ideas!

NATCA's has been approached about the possibility of organizing a group (or local groups) for NATCA spouses. To inform the possible development, NATCA is asking you - NATCA members and their loved ones - what you envision such a group would do and what you would want to get out of it. Thank you for sharing your feedback on another way we can serve our membership.

NOTE: This survey uses the term "spouse" for brevity and clarity, but if you feel that "family" or "partner" would be a better term for your ideal group, please let us know in the comments.
