The 2020 Census and NC Education Funding
The Decennial Census is the baseline/control for all other federal surveys, population estimates, and projections for the next decade. Getting the number wrong means that all numbers generated for the next ten years will also be wrong. This means that every year for the next decade, North Carolina could have insufficient funding to serve the needs of our state’s population. More than $2.3 billion in annual education and related funding to NC is linked to the decennial census. The largest share of federal funding directly allocated to North Carolina is for K-12 education ($807M) and early childhood ($548M). Another $176 million is allocated for career and technical education and adult education. While not directly allocated to the state, an estimated $850 million in Pell Grants will be used by individuals at NC colleges and universities in FY2019.

Census Bureau Teams Up With Tech Giants to Connect With Millennials and Other Hard-to-Count Populations
New uses of technology are transforming the way the U.S. Census Bureau will attempt to count every person in the United States once, only once, and in the right place.

Now there is a broad array of social media platforms and chatbot technology, plus millions more homes now have consistent access to the internet.

What Census Calls Us: A Historical Timeline
Explore the different race, ethnicity and origin categories used in the U.S. decennial census, from the first one in 1790 to the latest count in 2010. The category names often changed in a reflection of current politics, science and public attitudes. For example, became with Negro and African American added later. The term will be dropped for the 2020 census. Through 1950, census-takers commonly determined the race of the people they counted. From 1960 on, Americans could choose their own race. Starting in 2000, Americans could include themselves in more than one racial category. Before that, many multiracial people were counted in only one racial category.

Assessing Miscounts in the 2020 Census
The decennial census is foundational to our democratic society. Census population counts guide appropriations and federal funding allocations, congressional redistricting, state and local budgets, and data-driven business and research decisions. Yet despite its importance, the 2020 Census faces unprecedented threats to its accuracy. Since 2010, decennial census preparations have faced (1) underfunding leading to scaled-back testing and outreach operations, (2) innovations that promise efficient implementation but remain undertested and underdeveloped, and (3) the last-minute introduction of a citizenship question. For this reason and others, the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) has added the 2020 Census to its high-risk list of government activities in jeopardy in the coming years.

Funding a Complete Count in 2020: What Community Groups Need
Community-based Organizations must play a big role in getting a full and accurate count for New York in the 2020 Census. This will be the first year in which the Census Bureau asks residents to fill out Census forms online, raising issues about broadband access as well as comfort level with computers. There may be a controversial question added about the citizenship status of immigrants. And, a number of people are feeling hesitant about giving private information to the federal government. More than ever before, trusted community voices will be needed to help build bridges to maximize participation in the Census.

Why the Census Matters for LGBTQ People
Every 10 years, the federal government attempts to count every person living in the country for the U.S. Census. However, certain populations are inevitably undercounted. Transgender and queer people, LGB people, people of color, immigrants, people who are experiencing homelessness, people living in rural areas, people with low incomes, renters, single-parent households, people with limited English proficiency, and young children are overwhelmingly undercounted in the Census. Meanwhile, white people and homeowners tend to be overcounted.
