Census 2010 and South Asians
Click the above Title to view presentation
Date: Saturday, March 6th 2010; 2:00pm-3:00pm Central Time
Dial-in number: 1-270-400-1500
Access Code: 671955
Speaker: Abby Sookraj, Associate Executive Director, Sewa-Aifw, MN
Description: Did you know there are approximately 2.7 million South Asians living in the U.S.? Would you be surprised to know that South Asians was the fastest growing Asian American group in the U.S. in the 1990's? Where does all this information come from? From the Decennial U.S. Census!!
The Census is nationwide and occurs every 10 years and is written into the US Constitution. The demographic information is used for designating Federal funds to States and NGOs. It is important that immigrant populations participate in the Census so that funds can be allocated to our communities. One example is information printed in other languages, such as Spanish, Somali, Russian and Hmong. The Census data helps government and NGO's determine the need for more or less outreach to particular communities. Join us for a discussion about how the Census information is collected, privacy of information provided, who should respond to the Census and much more. Do you know what Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi and Sri Lankan communities have in common? Listen on March 6th for the answer!
