DeKalb County Commissioner Larry Johnson is calling for volunteers to help DeKalb County reach a 100 percent response rate on the 2020 Census.
During National Night Out on Tuesday, Aug. 6, the DeKalb County Complete Count Committee will share information on how residents can sign up to volunteer and ensure that hard-to-reach populations in DeKalb are counted, according to a press release.
DeKalb could receive $985 million per year for 10 years, if it reaches a 100 percent response rate on the 2020 Census.
Commissioner Larry Johnson was unanimously chosen by the Board of Commissioners to chair the DeKalb County Complete Count Committee. The goal of the committee is to ensure accurate Census data is collected which in turn will provide information critical for government programs, policies and decision making.
