*** 2020 Census Kick-Off Meeting ***

Volusia County Government and community partners will kick off a 2020 Census

awareness campaign at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 28, at the Emergency Operations

Center, 3825 Tiger Bay Road, Daytona Beach.

Individuals and representatives from cities, businesses, social service agencies and

faith-based organizations are invited to attend the meeting and learn how they can help

spread the word about the importance of completing census forms.

Chaired by Volusia County Council members Barbara Girtman and Billie Wheeler, the

local committee will include nine subcommittees representing local governments,

businesses, colleges and universities, community organizations, early learning, faithbased

organizations, housing, farm workers/agriculture, and senior citizens.

Data collected by the 2020 Census will affect how more than $675 billion in federal funds

will be distributed to state, local and tribal governments each year. It also will be used to

draw state legislative districts and determine the number of seats each state has in the

House of Representatives.

In mid-March, every household in the United States will receive an invitation to

participate in the 2020 Census. For the first time, they will have the option of responding

online, by phone or by mail.

In 2010, 74% of Volusia County households in Volusia County completed their census

forms; this equaled the national response rate. Those who did not respond received

visits from census workers, who helped them complete the form.

Residents are required by law to complete and return the forms by April 1. The Census

2020 form will ask for name, age, gender, race, date of birth, relationship to the head of

the household, and whether the respondents own or rent their home. It will not include a

citizenship question.
