Appendix C. Census Solutions Workshop Overview 22 <br /> What Is A Census Solutions Workshop? <br /> A solutions workshop is a creative, <br /> collaborative, problem-solving event that <br /> brings together diverse thinkers. <br /> A Census Solutions Workshop generates <br /> new ways of communicating the <br /> importance of census data, reaching hard- <br /> to-count populations, and encouraging <br /> participation in Census Bureau surveys and <br /> programs. <br /> Why It Matters <br /> A complete count ensures accurate census <br /> data that is critical for government programs, <br /> policies, and decision-making, but participation <br /> in Census Bureau surveys has declined in recent O O <br /> decades. We want to support your efforts to O <br /> generate innovative and engaging ways to O <br /> reach your communities. O <br /> How Can You Host A Workshop? <br /> Businesses, city officials, community-based ' <br /> organizations, or anyone else can host a <br /> workshop.
