March 23, 2020 by Jefferson Regional Foundation January 4, 2020 | Mon Valley Independent Story By: Eric Seiverling The Jefferson Regional Foundation is doing its part to make sure the upcoming U.S. Census runs smoothly — at least in the South Hills and Mon Valley areas. The foundation recently developed the Jefferson Counts initiative, a campaign led by Jefferson Regional Foundation, the Jefferson Community Collaborative, and other Jefferson Hills-area partners to ensure a fair and accurate 2020 Census count in the South Hills and lower Mon Valley communities.

The Constitution requires a count of every household in the United States, regardless of age, immigration status, language spoken or other demographic factors. View original article here.
