Let your voice be heard, participate in PPV Housing Survey

WASHINGTON (NNS) -- All Sailors living in government or Private Partner Venture (PPV) housing are strongly encouraged to participate in surveys to share their overall experience about their current living conditions.

The PPV survey, which will be available April 2-30, is an opportunity for Sailors to note their likes and dislikes with PPV housing and any health or safety concerns they may with their homes, community and services provided by the privatized housing management companies.

Surveys will be conducted April 2-June 30 for Sailors living in unaccompanied housing, as well as for those living in government owned or government leased housing, which began March 19 and runs through June 6.

“The Navy is committed to ensuring that our Sailors and their families have a quality, healthy and safe place to live,” said Vice Adm. Mary Jackson, commander of Navy Installations Command, which oversees Navy housing throughout the shore enterprise. “We have made progress in addressing the PPV housing issues, but there is a lot more work to be done. The results from this survey will help us further identify issues and resolutions. I urge all Sailors who receive the housing surveys to take a few moments of their time to fill them out.”

All three surveys are from CEL & Associates, Inc., which is an independent third party that will conduct and manage the surveys. An announcement letter will provide information to access the survey online.

It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete the survey. Those who participate in the survey will remain anonymous unless they choose to identify themselves in the survey.

Sailors who are living in PPV housing are asked to contact their chain of command for more information or the closest Navy Housing Service Center in the event they do not receive a letter.
