Island People United is a proud US Census 2010 partner. We strongly encourage Caribbean persons across the USA to complete the Census 2010 form in March this year and answer question 9 with their ancestry and/or country of origin. Spread the word by telling your Caribbean friends and/or family about completing the US census given it's importance. In addition it is only ten questions long.
For example:
The U.S. Census counts every resident in the United States, and is required by the Constitution to take place every 10 years.
The 2010 Census will help communities receive more than $400 billion in federal funds each year for things like:
* Hospitals
* Job training centers
* Schools
* Senior centers
* Bridges, tunnels and other-public works projects
* Emergency services
The data collected by the census also help determine the number of seats your state has in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Note: Any personal data you provide is protected under federal law and will not be shared.
USA RESIDENTS: COMPLETE THE CENSUS FORM WHEN YOU RECEIVE IT IN MARCH AND MAIL IT IN BEFORE APRIL 1, 2010.
