Together, We Can Shape Our Futures
The census is mandated by the Constitution, and everyone living in the United States (including the five U.S. territories) is required to participate. A complete and accurate count is critical for you and your community, because the results of the 2020 Census will affect community funding, congressional representation, and more.
Through your social media channels, you can help make a difference in your community. Share interesting facts and how-to guides to encourage your friends and family members to participate in the 2020 Census. And remind them—it’s not too late to respond!
 Conducting the Census: Everyone Counts
The U.S. Census Bureau has specific operations and processes in place to count everyone living in the United States, including those in group living situations such as college dorms, nursing homes, military barracks, and prisons.
In light of COVID-19, the Census Bureau adapted operations to protect the health and safety of its staff and the public. Where it is safe, census workers have resumed delivery of census questionnaires. Every household is encouraged to respond online, by phone, or by mail immediately. Learn more about how we conduct the count.
