In collaboration with our partners in sustainability at Verdis Group, Millwork Commons evaluates sustainability engagement with a survey every other year. Results from this survey determine the neighborhood’s Sustainability Engagement Score (SES). There are 100 possible points and the survey measures sustainability engagement across the five dimensions:
- Awareness of sustainability: familiarity with sustainability and related concepts
- Awareness of efforts: familiarity with sustainability initiatives at Millwork Commons
- Behavioral frequency: how often respondents report participating in specific sustainable behaviors
- Perceived norms: how often respondents believe others participate in those same behaviors
- Knowledge: understanding of how to take sustainable actions
