Get out the Count!

CALLING ALL ASIAN AMERICAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDER COMMUNITY LEADERS! YOUR AAPI COMMUNITY NEEDS YOU TO GET COUNTED IN 2020!
The 2020 Census is less than a year away and we need your help to achieve a complete count of our communities. There is a lot at stake for us in 2020, including hundreds of billions of dollars of federal funding allocated towards transportation, education, and social services. Did you know that Asians are least likely to report intention to complete the census?

We are partnering with Asian Pacific Islander American Vote (APIAVote) to bring the Norman Y. Mineta Leadership Institute (NYMLI) to your city.

We ask and strongly encourage that you attend. APIAVote will conduct an engaging and educational training on how to mobilize for the Census. The training will incorporate best practices in reaching out to all sectors of the AAPI community.
