Norcross is currently accepting applications from citizens interested in volunteering to join the Complete Count Committee for the 2020 Census. The nine-member Complete Count Committee will help the city achieve a ‘complete count’ of Norcross residents; an important initiative to ensure the city qualifies for federal and state grant funding.

Under-counted, low-income neighborhoods and those with large non-English speaking populations have historically received less financial aid for housing, transportation and other public spending.

Applications will be accepted through April 12: www.norcrossga.net/DocumentCenter/View/1957.
