DATE: Jan 09, 2020

This bill requires the California Census Office to partner with local educational agencies to make information about the 2020 census available to parents and students. That information will describe the importance of the census, identify privacy protections and resources provided by the federal Census Bureau, and list community resources available to assist with completing the census questionnaire, and any other information that may increase participation in the census.  This bill is intended to increase the Office’s ability to reach hard-to-count population groups, who may be more accessible through schools, such as children.

(Adds Section 65040.17 to the Government Code.)
