It's Census Time! 

Have you answered your census yet?  Make sure you are counted and complete your 2020 Census now. Every 10 years the government counts every person living in the country.  The data collected helps determine how much federal funding our community gets for schools, medical centers, roads, and much more.  The census is critical to making our community a better place to live. There are three easy ways to participate in the census: 

1. Answer online at www.2020census.gov
2. Call toll-free to 844.330.2020 (English) or 844.468.2020 (Spanish).  Call centers are open from 4 a.m. to 11 p.m.
3. Return a paper form via the mail (this option is only available if you received a paper form in the mail) 

Remember, if you do not self-respond a census worker will be sent to your home later this summer to collect census information so the easiest solution is to self-respond now. 

I challenge all of you to answer the census now!  Let’s get a 100% participation rate for our community! 

You can find more information about the census at www.2020census.gov.
