2020 Census Impacts School Funding!

In mid-March, homes across the country will begin receiving invitations to complete the 2020 Census. Once the invitation arrives, you should respond for your home in one of three ways: online, by phone, or by mail.

 

Importance of the Data

The 2020 Census will affect hundreds of billions in federal funding, and provide data that will impact communities for the next decade.  Census results affect planning and funding for education—including programs such as Head Start, Pell Grants, school lunches, rural education, adult education, and grants for preschool special education.

 

How you can help

In addition to responding to the census for your home & family, you could help others as well.  Did you know the U.S. Census Bureau is recruiting hundreds of thousands of people for temporary jobs across the United States? You could earn a competitive pay while supporting your community.  You could have a direct impact on ensuring the school receives proper funding.  Be a part of history.  This is your chance to play a role.
