Mission Statement

Our goal was to make sure that students at Manuel Dominguez High School in Compton are informed about the importance of the census. We presented to about 300 students who we hope will share the information that we gave on to their family, friends, and others. Compton tends to be hard to count the population because of the lack of knowledge or the language barrier. High school community outreach allowed us to fill in the gaps for students who either had no idea about what the census is or about how crucial the count is.
