For the Destinations Assessment

STEP ONE: Start by completing and please remember to "Save your Progess" after each section to insure that all of your data is recorded. You can also open the form full screen here.

STEP TWO: Once we receive your FULL submission, we will build a mobile app for you to utilize for editing your entered data. This app will be restricted to the person who initially submitted data on behalf of the destination. That person will be able to add leaders of other departments to the app in order to allow the most accurate data to be entered.

STEP THREE: Your data will be added to our Blockchain and will be made available to other administrative personnel added to the Blockchain associated with your destination or community.

You will look for this button inside the app to edit your information already submitted.
