Hi! Thanks for signing up to participate in our efforts to make sure LGBTQ+ Houston is represented accurately and comprehensively on the 2020 U.S. Census. While there won't be any questions about sexuality on the Census, we want to make sure that our community is represented as fully as possible. More representation in this once-a-decade data mining project means the potential for more federal funding to those in our community with the greatest needs!
This Census Engagement Form serves two purposes. The first is to get the contact information for our community members and stay in contact with them throughout the census timeline about specific events we're planning to educate and empower individuals to complete the Census. In addition, and of more importance, this serves as an example of just how easy it could be for the form to allow individuals to self-identify along the gender and sexuality spectra. With these simple additions, we would have a better sense of the breadth and scope of our community. A redacted version of this data could also serve as a representative sample for future actions regarding the Census so that, by the 2030 Census, many of our current concerns will be non-issues!
With that, please fill out the form below and help us....
