Information
The Partnership and Data Services program reflects
the Census Bureau's commitment to continuing and expanding upon
more than 140,000 organizational partnerships established during
Census 2000. It is an innovative and aggressive data dissemination
program that reaches virtually every segment of the American
population.
Partnership and Data Services staff members are providing data
information services and products and continuing contact with
Census 2000 partners. They are actively engaged in providing
data workshops and seminars with state, local, and tribal governments,
community based organizations, small businesses, rural community
groups, inner city neighborhood associations, media organizations,
national affiliates, and faith based organizations. These relationships
will assist the Census Bureau in conducting the most efficient,
accurate, and representative current surveys, while equitably
disseminating data among traditional and non-traditional data
users.
Staff is focusing on three major areas in support of the Census
Bureau:
- Educate
partners on how to access and use census data.
-
Motivate
and train non-traditional data users to use census data
and apply the data to their needs.
- Work
collaboratively with local organizations and national affiliates
to support regional office survey activities, including recruitment,
public awareness, and media campaigns.
The result
is a cohesive, robust, and dynamic program that reaches not only
the Census Bureau's regular data clients, but also reaches groups
that the Census Bureau relied upon heavily during Census 2000
to achieve an accurate count. By continuing dialogue with these
organizations, the Census Bureau is cultivating relationships
with many organizations that worked exceptionally hard during
the census to accurately count their, communities, and populations.
Another benefit of this program is that relationships are strengthened
with communities that are traditionally difficult to achieve good
response rates for surveys and censuses.
