Census 2016 forms started going out May 2nd…and your participation matters!
Communities lose out on significant funding ($46,000.00 per person) from the Federal Government if people do not complete the census by May 10, so there is a direct benefit to every tax payer to participate.
If you need assistance with filling them out please make an appointment at our office to see one of the settlement workers. We would be happy to help you!
