The Association of Retired Conservation Service Employees (ARCSE) developed a survey of their membership to assess their interest in volunteering to mentor newly hired Natural Resource Conservation Service employees, work as an Earth Team volunteer, and work with the ACES program. Additionally, the survey asked to rate the communications methods ARCSE currently employs to communicate with the membership.
A retired NRCS social scientist, Dr. Frank Clearfield, volunteered to help develop the survey and was assisted by the ARCSE president and her board of directors. The Internet survey was sent out to the full 747 ARCSE membership list on December 4, 2023. The results are listed below in a report and PowerPoint Presentation.
