Input and insights from the business community are essential as the Fort Worth Chamber works to address important issues affecting our members and businesses across Tarrant County. An issue that has emerged more frequently in recent discussions revolves around homelessness and its potential ramifications for businesses in the Fort Worth area.
To help us better understand the business community’s sentiments on this issue, the Fort Worth Chamber is conducting a brief survey and requests your participation. This is a complex issue with far-reaching consequences for our city, and we want to be part of the solution. The survey should only take a few minutes of your time and will provide valuable information and insights to the Fort Worth Chamber.
