Today's Interview: Count Me In Kentucky Nonprofit Coalition Sets Aim on 2020 Census

WEKU | By Samantha Morrill

Published August 14, 2019 at 4:44 PM EDT

The deadline to complete the 2020 Census is just around the corner.
The results of the Census determine how many federal dollars the state gets over the next ten years and impacts other state issues, like how many votes we get in the House of Representatives. With that in mind, Kentucky nonprofits are working to make sure that everyone gets counted. Samantha Morrill talked to Danielle Clore, Executive Director of the Kentucky Nonprofit Network, about the Count Me In Kentucky Nonprofit Coalition.
