Council of American Survey Research Organizations

Our definition of Council of American Survey Research Organizations:

Council of American Survey Research Organizations. Founded in 1975 and headquartered in Port Jefferson, NY, CASRO represents over 300 companies and research operations in the United States and abroad, all of which must abide by the organization’s Code of Standards. CASRO seeks to:

• Promote a rigorous code of conduct that enhances the image of survey research and protects the public's rights and privacy
• Advocate the industry's effective self-regulation when legislators propose bills that threaten legitimate survey research
• Champion legitimate research companies and marginalize disreputable research “pretenders” who threaten to tarnish the industry's reputation and alienate respondents
