Purpose of this Assessment
The Grocery Store Assessment Form is a tool designed to evaluate the quality, affordability, and accessibility of food options available in local grocery stores. Your input will help us generate valuable data that will inform our initiatives, partnership opportunities, and outreach programs.
What You'll Be Doing
As you complete this form, you'll be asked a series of questions about the grocery store you are assessing. These may include:
- Availability of fresh produce
- Quality of meat and dairy products
- Pricing and discounts
- Accessibility features (e.g., ramps, wide aisles)
- Presence of culturally diverse food options
- Overall cleanliness and customer service
Time Commitment
This assessment is expected to take approximately 20-30 minutes of your time. Feel free to take notes or photos as you move through the store to assist you in filling out the form accurately.
Confidentiality
All information collected will remain confidential and will only be used for the purpose of improving the food environments in our community. Specific stores will not be identified in any public reports without their explicit permission.
