JREDC seeks community input to plan future work

JACKSONVILLE, IL -- The Jacksonville Regional Economic Development Corporation (JREDC) is in the early stages of engaging the community regarding the future of its work.

Committed to promoting economic growth and stability in Morgan and Scott counties, JREDC endeavors to attract new businesses, support existing business and encourage entrepreneurship. Through strategic initiatives and partnerships, JREDC aims to enhance the quality of life for residents and make the Jacksonville region a great place to live and do business.

Responses to JREDC’s survey will help guide the work of the non-profit organization over the next five years. In addition, respondents will be asked questions to help plan the second round of JREDC’s talent attraction campaign. The first campaign launched in May successfully brought five professionals to the Jacksonville region.

“We value the input of Morgan and Scott County residents as we develop strategy to chart a vibrant future for the Jacksonville region,” explained JREDC President Kristin Jamison. “Your participation is critical as we seek to understand our residents’ vision and priorities for our communities.”
