About the Project


The City of St. Albert is committed to ensuring that residents have access to a coordinated and connected network of social services that responds to the broad needs of the community.

It has been over 10 years since a formal community social needs assessment in St. Albert has been conducted. The socio-economic impacts elevated by the pandemic have resulted in new and emerging social issues that are being felt by all communities.

St. Albert is a growing and diverse community; promoting and building a welcoming and inclusive community is important. It is critical that, as a community, we are working together to respond to the most pressing social issues for the betterment of all residents.

A connected, safe and inclusive City supports all residents, and helps to foster a strong sense of community well-being.

This is Why We Need to Hear From You!


We are interested in learning what is important to you, and how we can better meet the community social needs of children/youth, families, adults and seniors in St. Albert. We want to know:

  • How important is it that we address issues like social isolation, food insecurity, discrimination, mental health, homelessness, family violence, vandalism and more?
  • What kind of social support services are needed?

By completing this survey, you will help the City to understand what social issues St. Albertans are facing, identify where we can improve and what we should be focusing on now and into future.

Public feedback generated through this survey will be considered along with stakeholder and partner input, and community demographic analyses.

THIS SURVEY IS NOW CLOSED. Thank you to all who completed the survey. Your valued feedback and input is greatly appreciated. Please check this page for future updates, including our What We Heard Report.
