Jason Black —Communications Director for the Community Renewal Team — a non-profit located in Hartford, says Connecticut needs to fill out the 2020 Census like, YESTERDAY!
Take a listen to the interview below as he chats with Christine and Salt about the uber importance of filling out the census. It's quick, it's easy, it helps insure funding for your town and yes — filling it out can even get you ICE CREAM!
Jason reminds every one that now more than ever, it is vital to complete your 2020 federal U.S Census. With unemployment on the rise, the information collected from the 2020 Census, will help to inform federal, state, and local government agencies, along with community services and businesses, regarding how they should plan to allocate billions of dollars in critical services and programs for people in our communities all over Connecticut and nationwide.
This includes allocating funds for things like: schools, healthcare, emergency response services, and roads and bridges in your hometown. Ensuring that there is accurate and complete Census data is vital for implementing and evaluating new and existing services and programs.
You can truly make a difference just by completing your Census today — it will only take a couple of minutes, but it will do a lifetime of good. (And don't forget about that free ice cream!)
