WORKSHOP
1) OVERVIEW OF 2020 CENSUS COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP AND
ENGAGEMENT PROGRAM
Mr. Jon Proulx reviewed the 2020 Census Community Partnership and Engagement Program. The
goal of the program is to work with local partners to engage, educate, and encourage participation in
the 2020 Census by those who are less likely to respond and who are known to be hard to count. Mr.
Proulx then reviewed the State Complete Count Commissions and Complete Count Committees.
Complete Count Committees are organized at the county, municipal, or community level. Mr. Proulx
reviewed the objectives of a complete count committee and asked for input from the Board on
establishing a Complete Count Committee. Lisa Pappas, Plainfield Public Library, was present in the
audience and stated that Plainfield Public Library would be interested in being part of the process.
There was some further general discussion regarding establishing a Complete Count Committee. It
was the consensus of the Board to have staff work on establishing a committee.
Mayor Collins read the reminders.
On a motion from Trustee Lamb and second by Trustee O'Rourke, the meeting adjourned at
7:27 p.m.
