The National Association of Counties (NACo), in collaboration with the Pew Charitable Trusts, is conducting a brief (10-minute) questionnaire to glean the impacts of COVID-19 and the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) on county finances, as well as counties’ perception of future fiscal challenges. NACo and Pew will use the information collected to analyze the state of county finances, develop appropriate technical assistance and understand county priorities.

According to NACo:

This questionnaire is being distributed to various county positions from nearly every NACo member county (e.g., administrators, managers, treasurers, collectors, assessors, budget directors). The responses collected will remain anonymous, with only county names being mentioned for specific examples. Responses will be aggregated for the majority of the analysis.
