The 2010 census forms will be arriving in the mail soon. You will have 10 questions to answer. Be sure to tell your family and friends to completed their forms and mail them back to ensure your community receives much-needed Federal funding.
By completing your 2010 census form, you are helping to secure Federal funding to support education, health care, housing and economic development in your community. Counting every person living in this country is a huge job and we need everyone’s participation! If every member of your community is not counted in the census, we all lose. In the 2000 census, millions of people went uncounted.
In addition to allocating funds, the census affects your voice in Congress. The results of the data are used to adjust the number of districts per state and the number of representatives your state has in Congress. So, you can see that many things are impacted by the census and how important it is to have each person in our families, neighborhoods, and communities counted.
