Earlier this year, we surveyed our members and supporters to incorporate the input of our constituency as we continue our work defending civil rights and liberties across the state of Wisconsin.
Responses helped shape our strategies, cultivate our outreach efforts, and ensure we are not operating in a vacuum. As we head toward a more critical juncture in securing rights and liberties for all Wisconsinites, the ability to engage and move in conjunction with our membership and supporters is pivotal.
Here’s a snapshot of the results:
There were 195 survey respondents (64 male, 116 female, and 12 nonbinary/other), spanning a diverse socioeconomic range. The top three issue areas you said were important to you were Racial Justice, Freedom of Speech, and LGBTQ+ Rights. Many survey respondents reported that they prefer to be involved directly through donating, volunteering and/or ACLU-WI advocacy and activism efforts. As for frequency of engagement, there was a wide range of preferences, with many respondents wanting to engage with ACLU-WI content either daily through social media outlets like our TikTok, weekly by navigating to our blog, or quarterly by keeping up with our newsletter.
Shoutout to Suzanne C. and Micheal H. for being randomly selected to score ACLU-WI swag packs!
