The Hope Initiative is a research project, being conducted by Tricia Rhine and Kristal Roberts, with a goal of publishing.  The purpose of this survey is to gain your responses to four basic questions, on the topic of Hope.  Your responses will be added to responses from other participants and analyzed, using demographic data, also collected from this survey. All responses will remain completely anonymous.  However, if you would like the fact sheet, with the aggregated demographics, after data has been collected, please provide your email address and we will be happy to share it with you.  Thank you for your time and your candor.
