Last week members of the Alaska Census Working Group met with the Interim Director of the US Census Bureau, Dr. Ron Jarmin, at the Alaska Federation of Natives Convention.  Jarmin announced on stage that Toksook Bay, Alaska will be the first community in the United States to be counted in the 2020 Census, a significant gesture that highlights the importance of reaching remote and hard to count populations.

The Census Bureau also launched recruitment efforts to hire Alaskans for the 2020 Census. Are you interested in working on ensuring a fair and accurate count in Alaska?  Learn more about the job openings below:
