In support of a complete and accurate count, 2010 Census partnership specialists who work with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) communities will attend the 22nd National Conference on LGBT Equality: Creating Change.

Throughout its 220-year history, the census has evolved to accurately reflect our changing society, and the growing number of same-sex couples and marriages is just the latest societal change.
