Providing Support to the Public
What are the public’s needs when responding to the census, especially historically undercounted populations? How can we support people as they respond—whether online, by phone, by mail,
in English or in another language? How can we increase access for people with disabilities?

“It is very important to receive public input early in the decade and to hear from as many people and communities as possible.” Director Robert L. Santos
The Census Bureau particularly wants to hear your recommendations on the following five topics:
3
CENSUS TOPIC 1- Outreach
Reaching and motivating everyone to respond to the census. How can we reach everyone in America and motivate them to respond to the census? How can we reach historically undercounted
populations (such as the Hispanic or Latino population, the Black or African American population, the American Indian or Alaska Native population living on a reservation, people who
reported being of Some Other Race, and young children)?
4
CENSUS TOPIC 2- Technology
What technology could make responding to the census more user-friendly? If we need to collect data in person, how can we use technology to do that effectively?
5
CENSUS TOPIC 3- Data Sources
The 2020 Census used administrative records (such as data from federal and state governments), third-party sources (data from commercial sources), internal data, and publicly available
information to enhance operational efficiency and data quality. What other data sources, or methods of using them, could increase operational efficiency and effectiveness and improve
data quality?
6
CENSUS TOPIC 4- Contacting Respondents
How can we tailor our contact strategies to encourage households to respond to the census on their own? What tools and messages should we use to invite people to respond, and how often
should we reach out to each household?
7
CENSUS TOPIC 5- Supporting Respondents
How can we support people as they respond—whether online, by phone, by mail, in English or in another language? How can we increase access for people with disabilities?
