As companies and other types of organizations carry out their missions, they are impacted directly by the public policy environments in which they operate. We help our clients understand attitudes among the general public, thought leaders, legislators and others whose opinions affect the policies, regulations, and laws that can either help or hinder them in accomplishing their missions.

Drawing on our rich base of experience in political, corporate and industry communications, we help clients communicate persuasively on complex issues to targeted audiences, the news media, elected officials, and to the general public. As a result, they can be more effective in lobbying, issue advocacy, building public support for issues, and responding to crisis situations.

Harris Interactive upholds its tradition for integrity by having very strong rules to prevent the misuse of its published surveys. Above all, Harris Interactive surveys must not be used to mislead policy makers, the media, or the public. Even with controversial or delicate subjects, we are committed to protecting the credibility of both our clients and our firm.

Many Harris Interactive surveys have had substantial impact on public policy, from the birth of privatization and the abolition of mandatory retirement, to medical research and government programs for people with disabilities.

Whether you're looking to make a change with your company or institution, or to shed light on an important policy issue, Harris Interactive can help you understand what people think about the issues that matter to you.
