Community Writing Center Survey

The Eastern Michigan University Office of Campus and Community Writing is exploring the possibility of opening a Community Writing Center at the Ypsilanti District Library.

The EMU-YDL Community Writing Center will support adults who would like to work one-to-one with a trained tutor to receive writing help, attend writing workshops, and/or participate in a writing group. The responses you provide on this survey will help us determine the interest in and need for a Community Writing Center. It will also help us address your needs and interests.

This survey will require less than five minutes of your time to complete. Thank you!
