Session Is Over
-
Kellogg Eye Center
OLLI

COST: $5

RSVP is NOT required. 


The 2020 Census is closer than you think. The U.S. population census is one of the most significant processes sustaining our American democracy. Learn what it is all about, find out about the history of the census, how it’s run, the many important ways census data is used in Michigan, and the rigorous process to protect the privacy of your information.

Speaker Margaret Leary, from the League of Women Voters, will unfold the Census and explain why it’s essential that everyone is counted. There will be pertinent handouts and perhaps some interesting stories about attempts to influence some prior census results.
