Authorize mini-grant program to boost Census 2020 participation
In Plain English
The city wants to ensure every Richmond resident gets counted in the 2020 Census. This program gives small grants to local groups that help residents fill out census forms. A complete count brings more federal funding to Richmond for schools, roads, and social services over the next 10 years.
