Partners

Several partners join MACS in fighting for quality census data in Minnesota.

The Minnesota State Demographic Center is home to the State Demographer, Susan Brower who serves as a crucial resource for helping counties, cities, and townships participate in the 2020 Census.

MACS joined the Minnesota Council on Foundations to found the Minnesota Census Mobilization Partnership in a cross-sector collaboration of organizations and individuals working together to advocate for policies and resources and engage Minnesotans to achieve the goal of fully inclusive, honest and accurate 2020 Census in Minnesota.  MCF has launched post-2020 census work with the Census and Democracy Partnership starting in June 2022.

The Census Project is a broad-based network of national, state, and local organizations that supports a fair and accurate 2020 Census and comprehensive American Community Survey (ACS — the modern version of the census “long form”). Our participating stakeholders represent a diverse range of American sectors that rely on objective data for decision-making and promote civic engagement: business and industry; civil rights advocates; state and local governments; social service agencies; researchers and scientific associations; planners; foundations; and nonprofits focused on housing, child and family welfare, education, transportation, and other vital services.
