Make Sure to be Counted

Share

The 2020 Census will be the 24th in the United States. National Census Day is April 1, 2020. Lily Blouin, Regional Coordinator at Forefront expresses the importance of accounting for everyone in the area:

“The numbers that come back in the census determine millions and millions of federal dollars and how they get dispersed for roads, for schools, for social services. It is just really important everyone is counted,” Blouin states.

This will be the first U.S. census to offer options of responding online or by phone, in addition to paper form as in previous censuses.
