Findings and Analysis
Statistical Analysis
Because of the small number of respondents, the analysis below primarily presents the number of people responding
to each question category. The discussion also separates EBCH board and EBCAP board responses. When a question
asked for written comments, results are reported both in summary form along with individual exemplars.
Description of Survey Respondents
Sixteen EBCH and EBCAP board members responded to the survey, eight from each board. The respondents included
seven males and nine females. Two have been a board member for less than one year, six have been on the board for
1-to-3 years, three have been on the board for 4-to-6 years, and five have been on the board for more than six years.
I. EBCH Awareness
A. General Awareness
The survey included one question to assess board members’ perceptions about how well known the EBCH is.
What percentage of people in the East Bay do you think are aware of the EBCH’s programs
EBCH & EBCAP Board Responses: All respondents acknowledge that the EBCH is not well known among the East
Bay community. The specific percentages are not important; rather the acknowledged lack of awareness is the issue
that needs to be addressed.
