Join the Local Economic Index
Give your opinion on the local economy

Over the last few months Olivet’s Weber Leadership Center has been working to establish a new economic indicator index for Kankakee County. We ask 3-4 questions that are the same every month so we can track trends and then from time to time questions that are "hot" such as on tax policies; debt and deficit discussions, and so forth. The results are released to the media and key political leaders. The responses are all gathered electronically online and anonymously. For this survey to be an accurate reflection of the business and professional community we want all sectors involved so we think you would make an excellent panel member. Please take just a minute per month to fill out our economic survey - your thoughts are valuable.
