Below are many opportunities for you to share your experiences and potentially get paid for doing so. Be sure to check the surveys criteria before completing.

Social Security Administration – Customer Feedback Survey

We recently launched our new Customer Feedback Survey. We encourage you to tell us how we’re doing by completing a brief survey on our Customer Feedback page. Your feedback is anonymous, doesn’t collect your personal information, and you can use it to rate your experience online, on the phone, and in your local Social Security office.

What is the Customer Feedback Survey?

It is a simple, brief survey to share your feedback with us using your computer, tablet, or smartphone. In addition to rating your experience, we welcome your ideas on how we can do better.

What will we do with your feedback?

We are committed to listening to you and finding better ways of helping you.

We will use your feedback to identify common, recurring issues and come up with solutions to improve our service. It is important we hear from you, so that we can get valuable insight to enhance your experience and serve you better.

Please share this information with your family and friends – and post it on social media.

Are you interested in a puberty and sexual health education program for autistic youth? We are conducting a research study to understand better how autistic youth and their families can learn together about pubertal development and sexual health. We are inviting families with a child/adolescent diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder or who self-identifies as autistic and who is in the 9th to 12th grades or between 14 and 19 years old. This is an online study. Families will be asked to complete the online puberty and sexual health toolkit, answer questions about their experience with the toolkit. Families will be compensated $100 for their time participating in this study. Please contact Jenny Phan for more information about the study at (240) 397-8208 or jmphan@childrensnational.org.
