Goal: Be good to go with the hard to count

The U.S. Census Bureau wants you to lie down and be counted.

Where you sleep most of the time will determine where you live for purposes of the 2020 census, which is expected to cost the federal government $15.6 billion and require hiring 500,000 temporary workers.

Households can be “complex” because of divorce, fluid work and school schedules and other factors, a Census Bureau employee said during a late-January open house at Amani Family Services in Fort Wayne.

“The fundamental goal is that we are counting every single person in that home. I don't even say who lives in that home anymore – I say who sleeps in that home,” said Jacqueline Beverly, a community partnership specialist for the bureau.

She illustrated her point as Flor Guayamo of Language Services Network translated in Spanish for some of the people in the room.

The FWCS and Bluffton-Harrison MSD school boards Monday approved resolutions formalizing their commitment to helping the federal government get an accurate count of the state population.

Census data is used to distribute federal funds that support programs including Title I, special education and school nutrition.

State Superintendent Jennifer McCormick recently encouraged schools to promote awareness of the upcoming census because an accurate count will help schools get their fair share of federal dollars.
