National Opinion Research Center Polling in SE

Poll on Initiatives to Improve the
Condition and Lives of Children in our Community

The Annie E. Casey Foundation and Indianapolis Making Connections are undertaking an important initiative with local residents to improve the condition and lives of children in our community. Representatives from the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago (NORC) will be collecting data to help evaluate how well this initiative is working.


Over 1200 households in our area have been selected as part of a random sample of neighborhood residents. Starting in August, and continuing through December, NORC interviewers will contact selected households in your community by telephone and in-person to request a 50-minute in-person interview.


Be assured that participation in this study is completely voluntary and that interviewers will adhere to the strictest professional standards. Interviewers will be wearing numbered photo identification badges that will clearly state that they are NORC representatives. The interviewers are trained professionals who have signed legally binding pledges of confidentiality.


NORC is one of the oldest and most prestigious social survey research organizations in the nation. We have been conducting nationwide surveys for over 60 years, during which we have earned a reputation for research that is scientifically sound and socially worthwhile.
