NW OpinionScape
Northwest OpinionScape is a collaborative research project whose mission is to provide current, reliable, and objective information about the values, beliefs, and attitudes of Pacific Northwest residents in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. Its reports are based on quarterly online surveys that will benchmark changes and identify trends over time. Project partners will use the research findings to help ensure that the full spectrum of Northwest residents’ opinions are considered in the context of public policy issues, news of the day, and furthering public understanding of what public health encompasses.
The partners in this collaborative effort are Northwest News Network (N³) public radio, the Northwest Health Foundation (NWHF), and Davis, Hibbitts & Midghall, Inc. (DHM Research).
