Opportunity Alert!
The Census Bureau is looking to hire Enumerators for the 2020 Census. Enumerators are responsible for contacting individuals who do not initially respond to the Census. These are temporary jobs with flexible hours (mostly nights and weekends). Pay is quite competitive. The work will peak in late spring and early summer, so after the presidential primary and before the peak of activity in the general election.

Making sure that everyone is counted by the Census is vital for purposes of political representation and allocating social services. Serving as an enumerator provides a great opportunity to serve your community, especially harder-to-count populations such as lower-income individuals, minorities, immigrants, and young people. The Census has needs throughout Arlington, but particularly in the Rosslyn-Ballston corridor, Pentagon City / Crystal City, and Shirlington. Apply online at [link removed] ([link removed]) .

The Arlington Young Democrats, in partnership with Equality Virginia, call on members and allies to volunteer for this important Equality Means Business campaign, which seeks to find local businesses willing to pledge that they will not discriminate against their employees or customers who are members of the LGBTQ community!

Our Arlington community is one of the bluest in the Commonwealth, and it’s time we start living our values through our businesses. But we need help getting the word out!

Volunteer to help AYD contact local businesses in Arlington (in person or by phone) to tell them about this important campaign and help them join! We will provide all volunteers with a sample script to get you started. Sign-up here ([link removed]) !

Contact [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) with any questions!
