CENSUS COUNTS

Census Counts is a collaborative campaign involving more than 15 national organizations and dozens of community partners working together to make sure that the 2020 Census is fair and accurate.

Census Counts recently released a Digital Academy, funded by Census Funders Collaborative, to help build the digital capacity of local complete count committees and community organizations. The academy is divided into two parts: 1) short digital organizing videos and, 2) a series of online digital organizing trainings.

Digital organizing videos include:

• Introduction
