...See more I want to thank everyone who took the time to share their thoughts and suggestions in our recent community survey. Your feedback is invaluable, and I've been taking the time to carefully review it all. I'm excited to share some key areas where we're thriving as well as growth opportunities. Regarding the requests for technical improvements, we want to acknowledge that our resources have limitations. While we may not be able to fulfill every wish, your input is deeply appreciated and will guide our future development. We're committed to making this community the best it can be for everyone, and your voices are essential in that process. Here's some things we're doing well! - Most people who seek a space like this are likely willing to grow and listen to others, so it's simply the people who make it welcoming. - Mods are great with welcoming new members - The forums and the sessions in groups are very positive. - I think we are doing well in teams like PAT and the KP Team. I feel that it’s so sweet that we can appreciate each other and it’s so important to spread this kind of kindness around all the time - I like the threads and different options of interactions we have. I also love the guided thread reflections, and I like the different activities and challenges - I quite like that there have been many refresher quizzes and whatnot across the community. I notice that there are improvements in the leadership teams and I am most grateful. - Awesome autism community. - I think that we're good at giving vital information and we've got many amazing listeners here. We also have forum posts that are very helpful to many who read them. We are good at being supportive to one another as well. Improvement opportunities - Consistent and faster replies in the Needs Reply section - Making sure both members and listeners get welcomed in forums - Autism training material for listeners - Heightened awareness of the importance of self-care for those in roles - Cultivating the habit of welcoming people when they enter rooms and including them in conversations to increase inclusivity - More mod presence and available doorkeepers - That every team creates their own refresher quizzes to run monthly or quarterly - Better listener training and screening process (in the works) - More transparency as to what leaders are working on in the background. - Organize and highlight resources for members, similar to how listener resources are prevalent in forums. - App enhancements (ongoing) Our journey as a collective community is full of continuous growth, and with your participation, we can reach new heights of inclusivity, support, and positive impact. With that said, if any of the initiatives mentioned above interest you, and you’d like to contribute to helping us move them along, please let me know. Thanks, all!

New Community Feedback Process
by Heather225
Last post
 June 21st, 2022
...See more Dear all, I am writing with an update on a new feedback process. Fristo and several others have been gently nudging us and letting us know that we need to have a tighter process, and here it is! 1. Submit any feedback here on this form. [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeKdc41mqdmvjANHvb-pKr2ec-snE8u9v1YT6tmHmLtNe8owQ/viewform] 2. We will review the feedback and contact you via the email you provide to let you know that we have received your submission and ask any clarifying questions. 3. We will review this feedback as a community team and choose the items we can realistically accomplish. There are a few things to keep in mind in terms of our rate of progress. First, we work hard and attempt to get as much done as we can, but we are not always able to accomplish as much as we’d like to accomplish. Second, sometimes urgent and unexpected items come up that we have to address. These can take us off track. Three, keeping 7 Cups operating requires a lot of energy. 99.8% of what we do is at no cost. Implementing new items or providing new training is over and above the operational costs and energy of keeping our community healthy and strong. We look forward to hearing from you and seeing what we can do together to improve our beloved community! When to use this vs. submitting a request under support and feedback: Feedback form: for site suggestions and community feedback. This form is NOT used for reporting users, glitches, account restoration, or therapy queries. Please go through the appropriate channels to file reports [https://www.7cups.com/forum/SiteUpdatesInformationFortheCommunity_100/HsHangout_1970/FilingBehavioralReportFormsAlltheinformationyoumightneed_242537/] and submit account reviews [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScqva6u9GVllcKFBro2ZOg2tugEknrU8cMoi__JJClisFZzJw/viewform]. Bugs: Found in the 7 Cups Help Center [https://help.7cups.com/hc/en-us], use this support ticket submission form [https://help.7cups.com/hc/en-us/requests/new] and select Product Support (Bugs). If you do not receive a reply within 48-72 hours, email community@7cups.com Note: We encourage you to use this form instead of the Provide Feedback selection on the Submit a Request page. If you did not receive an email or you would like to follow up on your submission, please PM me.
Community Feedback: Playlist Paths

...See more Are you a fan of our Growth Paths? What would you think of being able to create your own? You may have read about it in our January Update. The Growth Path Playlist [https://www.7cups.com/forum/SiteUpdates_100/GlensNookCommunity_547/CreateandShareYourOwnGrowthStepsandGrowthPaths7CupsGrowthPathPlaylists_228306/] is a new feature that will allow trusted members, listeners, and experts to create their own growth path steps and entire growth paths (it’ll also work on the listener side with progress path steps and progress paths). Think about if you could completely personalize a growth path of your own: what would it be? What would be the topic you focus on? In what way would you want to help others with it? In preparation for our launch, we'd like to ask you to fill out this quick survey [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScu0MhJRWoM5YF1g8fUvvy-S4mVFCkSsxxgA54V8lXG8g6dcQ/viewform] and let us know what categories/topics you would like to see. All thoughts welcome! This will be one of our biggest community-wide efforts yet and we look forward to what your collective intelligence, experience and creativity will surface in your own playlists to help one another in an all-new way!
