SCIDpda is leading the Chinatown International District Complete Count Committee for the 2020 Census. It is important for our community to respond to the Census as many of our programs are funded through the data collected by the Census.
We have a number of resources below about the Census and information for you to use.
Census Counts Resources
The Census Counts campaign, a collaborative project led by The Leadership Conference Education Fund, is working in all 50 states, partnering with national and local organizations. See their resources:
