The 2020 Census will determine New York’s fair share of billions of dollars in federal funds for public education, affordable housing, infrastructure, and more — as well as the number of seats we have in Congress for the next decade. The deadline to fill out the Census is September 30! Join us in a conversation about the countdown to our future and why you matter.

A conversation centered around Black excellence, NYC’s Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP), and what young grassroots leaders are doing in their communities at this time.

Our second COVID-19 Conversations is a special edition where we discussed the murder the George Floyd, the protests that gripped the nation afterward, and the push to end police brutality and systemic racism in America.

A few weeks ago, the U.S. Census Bureau announced September 30th as the new deadline for officials to complete the 2020 Census survey, one month earlier than planned.

At a time when we are already struggling to recover from COVID-19, we as a city, cannot risk losing additional federal and state funding.

Uplifting the voices of the community leaders in New York.
