Please participate in a survey on improving communications about Japan - Following the accident at Fukushima Daiichi this spring, we have all been engaged in telling the story of our industry and the value we bring to our communities and the U.S. We would like your insights from the conversations you have had - whether to an audience of 50 or with your friends and neighbors - we'd like to learn what you've been hearing.

Please take a few moments to complete the survey through the link below. We'll report back about your input through the NA-YGN newsletter soon.
