FOCUS conducts research and communicates our findings to local leaders and the community
FOCUS doesn’t just gather people and ideas; it generates research, engagement, and community planning that is focused on citizens. This helps Central New York to thrive and prosper!
FOCUS conducts research initiatives focusing on citizens and provides reports and recommendations based on its findings. Our reports are widely used by Onondaga County, Syracuse City, other organizations, businesses, and individuals for future planning purposes.
