OneAmerica Community Census Outreach campaign: Raise your hand
and be counted! It’s easy, it’s safe, the results will empower
our communities! OneAmerica believes there is a critical need to
ensure that all communities are counted in the 2010 Census.
Historically, the Census has undercounted particular communities
such as immigrants, refugees and low income communities. We are
encouraging participation without fear of repercussion to all
levels of the immigrant community. This will help inform local,
state and federal governments of our true numbers and through
hard data, demonstrate the significant role immigrants play in
all our communities The 2010 Census - Raise your hand and be
counted! - Its important - Its safe - It easy - It can empower
our communities! How does it work? - The Census is a count of
everyone living in the United States, regardless of citizenship.
- In March 2010, the US Census Bureau will send a form in the
mail to every household in the country. - The Census form asks
only 10 questions
