YOUR BUSINESS AUTHORITY
Springfield, MO
Editor’s Note: The honorees of this year’s Economic Impact Awards are healers, innovators and givers. They embody what’s possible when talented, hard-working men and women come together to meet business and civic needs. The 2018 companies receiving top honors are a health care and hospice provider, a chiropractic clinic and a nonprofit that ministers to people who are homeless. I give a round of applause to the judges who took their time to read and score the nominations, a standing ovation to the 2018 winners and a heartfelt thanks to you, our readers, for supporting Springfield Business Journal for the past 38 years.
