NORC at the University of Chicago is conducting a national study that includes households in Villa Park.
Because NORC interviewers are not seeking purchases or contributions, they are not required by Village code to carry a solicitor's permit. However, NORC has contacted Village officials and stated all interviewers will wear photo identification badges, stating they are NORC representatives.
NORC at the University of Chicago is undertaking a national study designed to provide information on the circumstances of all types of families across America. The study is sponsored by the Federal Reserve Board. Through Jan. 2017, NORC interviewers will contact selected households in Villa Park. Interviewers will visit pre-selected households, explain the study to an adult and, after informed consent has been obtained, interview selected individuals in each household.
Participation in the study is completely voluntary.
