SECOND GENERATION

_

banner

Welcome


Our group's target population is high school students who have at least one foreign-born parent and thus identify as second-generation. As children of immigrants or immigrants ourselves, we know first-hand that as trusted messengers in our household, we are uniquely positioned to engage in discussions about the Census with our loved ones.This generally extends to second-generation immigrants, who tend to explain political information to their parents and families. As such, we want to equip youth populations with accurate, applicable information about the 2020 Census, so they can be an informed trusted messenger for their communities.


For the next ten years, the data collected from the 2020 Census will have political and financial implications for underrepresented communities. Although this project centered around advocacy efforts for 2020, we hope that the materials and information live beyond this course and will be applicable for future generations.
