The Northwest Missouri Regional Council of Governments is conducting a COVID-19 Business Impact Survey to help understand the pandemic’s impacts on area businesses. As the regional economic development agency that serves Atchison, Gentry, Holt, Nodaway, and Worth Counties, the Northwest Missouri Regional Council of Governments is working with local, state, and federal partners to assess the impacts of COVID-19 on the economy and to help coordinate relief efforts. As a local business and critical part of the local economy, the Regional Council would like your insight into the effects of COVID-19 on your business. To best support local efforts to respond to, and eventually recover from the pandemic effects, the Regional Council needs as much real-time information as possible. Therefore, business owners are being asked to take four minutes to complete this short survey to help us understand the economic impacts COVID-19 is having on the local economy. Responses will be anonymous unless individual business owners choose to provide contact information at the end of the survey.
