First Focus on Children submitted the following comment to the U.S. Census Bureau in response to a request for input on 2030 Census Preliminary Research.
Excerpt from the Comment:
First Focus on Children is proud to co-lead the Count All Kids Committee, which was formed by national, state, and local children’s organizations and allies who joined together to ensure our nation’s children were counted in the 2020 Census. The committee continues to work to raise awareness among the public, advocates, allies, and policymakers — and to identify opportunities to improve the count of children in each Decennial Census as well as other data that the Census Bureau provides on children – especially young children.
