From the Rhode Island Foundation:

Rhode Island organizations are invited to apply for grants to conduct outreach and education activities that will encourage participation in the 2020 Census. Those activities should focus specifically on increasing census response rates in communities that have been historically undercounted or are vulnerable to an undercount in 2020. Allowable activities include public engagement campaigns, neighborhood awareness, trainings, special events, resident organizing, designating space and technology as a census site, and integrating census-related activities into your organization’s programs and activities. Awards will be range from $1,000 – $25,000.

An information session for potential applicants will be held on Thursday, November 7, 2019 from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Nonviolence Institute, 265 Oxford Street, Providence, RI. Please register here to attend.

This program has two deadlines – November 25, 2019 and January 31, 2020. One application per organization, per funding round will be accepted.
