CENSUS 2020 DEADLINE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2020!
DO NOT allow your voice to be silenced! YOU COUNT! YOU MATTER! Visit www.2020census.gov to learn more and to respond online.
CENSUS 2020
• Every 10 years we are asked to complete a United States Census form. It is a civic duty we should take seriously because it ensures our families and communities are counted.
• Recent reports claim less than 60 percent of Georgians have submitted their Census form. 32 counties have Census completion rates under 40 percent.
• With President Trump deciding to end the Census one month earlier, there is a real chance we will not reach the 72 percent completion rate of 2010.
• The COVID-19 pandemic has prevented the traditional door-to-door canvassing typically associated with the Census.
• We encourage residents to submit their Census form online. It is simple and does not take much time.
• If that is not an option, please consider going to your local church or library to fill out the form.
• Allowing yourself to not be heard can be disastrous for the state and our communities.
• An undercount leads to our state not receiving its fair share of federal funding for education, housing, transportation, healthcare, and other services many are dependent on.
• As important, an undercount impacts the redrawing of local, state and federal representative boundaries. There might be an opportunity to gain another Congressional seat or create a state legislative district that further diversifies the Georgia General Assembly.
• During this pandemic, the state of Georgia needs all the assistance it can get.
• Do not allow your voice to be silenced. You count. You matter. Visit www.2020census.gov to learn more and to respond online.

Did you know that only 68% of the Clayton County residents were counted in the 2010 Census? The census has a huge impact on funding for many services like healthcare, housing assistance, and sustainability for the county. Each person that is NOT counted results in a loss of approximately $1,334, per person.
Remember that you will start receiving your 2020 Census Information in March! April 1, 2020 is Census Day and EVERYONE needs to be counted.
Please make sure you are counted in the Clayton Census 2020. #ClaytonCounts #ClaytonCensus2020
