The census is critical. It determines political representation and how billions of dollars are allocated locally to support the services we use every day like schools, hospitals, infrastructure, transportation and community services. Officials from the Mayor's Office of Equity, Allegheny County, U.S. Census Bureau and the Complete Count Committee will discuss local efforts to ensure that all of our residents are counted in the 2020 Census.
Moderated by Josiah Gilliam from the City of Pittsburgh, panelists include:
- Alaa Mohamed, City of Pittsburgh Office of Equity
- Jessica Mooney, Allegheny County
- Marian Lien, Complete Count Committee
- Dr. Sheila Beasley, U.S. Census Bureau
- Traci Johnson, Complete Count Committee
