Please Add Your Influential Voice

Please use all of your professional and personal communication channels to urge people to be counted.

Our community needs the necessary funding based on the 2020 Census count. The funding supports:

Free and reduced lunch for students in need
Medical assistance support for families in need
Tuition assistance for college students in need
and much more.

Each person counted represents $1,500 per year that funds these much-needed federal grants.
