Every ten years the United States government conducts the Census, a national accounting of everyone living in the states, D.C., and the U.S. Territories. The resulting data helps determine the allocation of federal dollars, support for new infrastructure, and how the population will be represented in Congress. Nonprofits have an important role to play in this process. Refer to the 2020 Census web page for information.
