2020 Census Information Session

How will the 2020 Census Impact You?

Learn about the 2020 Census and What It Means for You and Our City!

Join Councilman Canek Aguirre, city staff, and community leaders for a panel discussion on the 2020 Census and why it is so important for EVERYONE to respond.

For every 1% of Alexandria residents not counted, the city loses $18 million dollars in federal funding over the next ten years.

Learn more about which programs and services are impacted, including the effects that the undercount will have on ACPS, health and social services for city residents, local infrastructure and development, and more.

We'll also discuss the strong legal protections in place to keep your personal information safe and confidential.
