Census2020 is right around the corner! How can every person in the U.S. possibly be counted? As you can imagine, the plan is complex, and remote areas are already being counted. For most of us, the rollout begins this month, with the initial invitations being mailed March 12-20. See the full schedule and read more here.
Something to keep in mind: a Complete Count in part depends on us. Inform your friends and neighbors, post the flyers on your neighborhood bulletin boards, and spread the word how much Census2020 matters for everybody.
