Posted by Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia on April 11, 2016

The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia is conducting the Second Quarter 2016 Community Outlook Survey (COS). The focus of this quarter’s survey is Workforce and Economic Development. We welcome responses from organizations engaged in the following activities to expand economic opportunity for low- and moderate-income individuals and communities:

  • Job Training/Workforce Development
  • Employment Placement Services
  • Economic Development Planning
  • Trade or Industry Association
  • Commercial Development/Business Services
  • Community Development Finance

Your participation in the COS is critical to keeping the Bank informed about trends and conditions affecting the communities you serve. You may participate in the survey by clicking on the link below or by copying and pasting the URL into your Internet browser:

We estimate that the survey will take 10 to 15 minutes to complete, and we would appreciate your responses by Friday, April 22. Your responses will be kept strictly confidential.

If you would like to delegate this survey to someone within your organization, please feel free to do so. If you have any questions or feedback on the new COS format, please contact Eileen Divringi at [email protected].

P.S.: Next quarter, the survey will focus on Health, Wellness & Family Services.
