Two things you can do to help the community in 2020

 

Fill out the 2020 Census

Encourage your friends, family, and neighbors to do so, too!

A complete count of residents ensures that our State is properly represented in Congress, and that our community receives the Federal financial support it deserves for many important services, including education.

New Bedford Counts connects you to the federal census and lists Census Help Center phone numbers where you can ask questions.  https://www.newbedford-ma.gov/census/
