Are you ready for Census 2010?

10 questions, 10 minutes. 

 

Every year, the federal government can allocate more than $300 billion dollars to tribes, states and communities based, in part, on census data. Accurate census data will guide funding decisions for tribes.  In addition, census work can bring jobs to members of your tribe living on or off tribal lands.  Your response to the 2010 census will ensure a more accurate count and portrait of Native populations and give future generations the information they need to track their lineage.  Responding to the census questionnaire is safe. And with only 10 questions, the 2010 Census questionnaire is one of the shortest questionnaires in history and takes just 10 minutes to complete.  Census Day begins April 1, 2010!
