Census 2020: It’s easy. It’s safe. It’s important.
Respond Today!
The number of responses in our neighborhood determines how much of $675 billion in federal dollars East Harlem will receive over the next 10 years — funding that should go to our schools, housing, healthcare, infrastructure and food assistance. As of August 2020, only 60 percent of Harlem residents have responded, compared to 80 percent nationally. So fill out your form now!
