Friend –
The past few weeks have laid bare how important medical resources are to our community. The census helps determine how much funding hospitals and other public health institutions receive that can make the difference during public health emergencies. Now is the time to have your neighbor’s back, participate in the census today!
It takes 10 minutes to fill out your census form, but the impact is long-lasting. The data collected determines how resources are distributed for the next 10 years. Many of us are feeling powerless during this time of crisis, but filling out the census is an easy way to give back to your community when we are isolating at home.
Last week you made a plan to fill out the census online, over the phone or by mail. Today is the day to put that plan into action! Our communities are counting on us to participate. Why wait? Fill out your form today!
Finally, keep in mind that it’s not only hospitals and emergency services that will be better funded if you’re counted. Census data also helps determine the funding for our schools, transportation systems and affordable housing.
With this much on the line, we don’t have a moment to lose. Go online and complete the census today!
In Solidarity,
CLUE, We Count LA
