| Mission: | The goal of CRC is to secure good government for the citizens of Michigan -- government that is representative of and responsible and accountable to the public; effective in carrying out its responsibilities and providing services; and efficient in the use of its resources. Research Council activities focus on four areas: 1. Monitoring trends in state and local finances; 2. Analyzing the structure and organization of government; 3. Conducting in-depth studies of major public policy issues; and 4. Assisting public officials and concerned citizens to promote efficiency, effectiveness, and accountability in governmental operations. |
| Products: | Through its research and publications, the Citizens Research Council provides an independent, nonpartisan, and objective source of factual information on state and local public policy issues. It identifies problems, prepares the factual information necessary to define and understand those problems, and develops and evaluates alternative solutions. Research is conducted in cooperation with public officials, often with the assistance of individuals from the private sector and universities. Over the years, the Research Council has established excellent working relationships with a wide variety of public officials, civic agencies, and citizen groups. In order to encourage public understanding and discussion of state and local government issues, the results of all Citizens Research Council projects are available to the public. CRC has researched and published reports on virtually every aspect of state and local government including: * State and Local Tax Policy Issues * State/Local Government Relationships * Statewide and Local Ballot Issues * Education Governance * Governmental Structure & Organization * State Budget Process and Issues * Highway Administration & Finance * Public Education * Local Governmental Consolidation and Cooperation * Public Health * Medicaid * Health Care Finance * Mental Health and Other Healthcare Issues * Higher Education * Corrections |
