JACKSON COUNTY, MI – An upcoming survey aims to help improve the lives of Jackson County residents.
The countywide phone survey of residents will start in January to assess the overall physical, emotional, educational and financial health of the community, according to a Henry Ford Allegiance Health news release.
The hospital is partnering with the Center for Family Health and the Jackson County Health Department through the Jackson Collaborative Network to do the phone survey. The results will be used by the organizations to better focus their resources toward helping the community, the release states.
Random residents who are 18 and older with a landline or cellphone will receive calls from January to March, through a market research firm called Research and Marketing Strategies. The number will appear as 315-303-0203 with a caller ID of Research & Marketing Strategies, per the release.
The information will remain anonymous.
“The data supplied by this year’s survey will be used to identify social, economic and academic barriers and disparities in the Jackson community,” Jackson Collaborative Network Manager Sheri Butters said in the release. “Having this level of information helps our partners identify, and most importantly, address the root causes of issues that are negatively impacting residents.”
The results of past surveys can be found here.
