Building a stronger Minnesota
Join organizations using insights from our Minnesota Community Survey to create positive change. Every survey captures authentic perspectives from harder-to-reach populations, including Black, Latino, Asian, and rural residents.
Our approach is straightforward: Build a diverse community of state residents who share their views regularly and receive fair compensation for their time.
We're (seriously) good with numbers.
Make data-driven decisions that strengthen your community
Transform how you serve your community with nuanced insights that reveal:
-

Where you can maximize your impact
