East Hartford’s Census Day of Action

June 2, 2020

Wednesday, June 17 will be East Hartford’s Census Day of Action! What does that mean? We want to ensure that EVERYONE in our town is counted in the 2020 Census. You can help by participating in the CALL FIVE campaign. Here’s how it works:

  • Call at least five of your friends, family, or neighbors on June 17 to see how they are doing during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Ask them if they have had the chance to fill out their Census questionnaire yet.
  • If not, explain to them that completing the Census is safe, easy, and important. By being counted, they can help East Hartford receive thousands of dollars in state and federal funding to support critical programs and services vital for our community.
  • Tell them they can fill it out online at 2020Census.gov, over the phone at 844-330-2020 in English and 12 non-English languages.
  • Before you end your call, ask them to then CALL FIVE people to check in and also ask about the Census. It’s that easy!

Please respond by Friday, June 5 to let us know that you or your organization are willing to participate in this important campaign. If you are part of an organization or group, we will ask you for the names and e-mail addresses of each participant.
