What are Census Information Centers?
The U.S. Census Bureau created the Census Information Centers as partnerships with up to 55 non-profit organizations that focus on working with underserved communities historically less likely to participate in the U.S. Census and associated surveys.
Census Information Centers include national and community-based organizations such as national non-governmental organizations, minority colleges and universities, minority chambers of commerce, civil rights and social justice organizations, organizations serving children, the aging and rural populations, and tribal governments.
The Census Information Centers work to promote and provide timely access to Census data and Census Bureau data products. They are recognized as official sources of demographic, economic, and social statistics produced by the U.S. Census Bureau and provide training and technical assistance to interested data users
