Missouri Foundation for Health has launched the second annual Speak Up MO poll to get a better understanding of how Missourians feel about a range of important health issues. This nonpartisan effort is just one of the ways we’re listening to and learning from communities across the state.
Working with a nonpartisan polling firm, Missouri Foundation for Health administered the 2025 Speak Up MO poll from June 16-July 1, 2025. The type of survey administered was a dual-mode resident survey, targeting adult residents of Missouri. Nearly 2,000 Missourians, including 1,670 in the Missouri Foundation for Health service area, were asked a series of questions to help us determine their experiences with a number of public-health related issues.
Feedback was also gathered from Missourians through pre-poll focus groups and via QualBoard, an online software platform designed to help conduct research to understand people’s opinions, experiences, and motivations.
