North Carolina Is Growing. Now We Have to Get the Count Right.
North Carolina is growing at a remarkable pace. But as our population expands, so does the responsibility to ensure every person is counted.
On Census Day (April 1), NC Counts Coalition is lifting up a powerful message from our Executive Director, Stacey Carless: growth alone is not enough. An accurate census count is what determines whether our communities receive the representation, resources, and investment they deserve.
In this op-ed, Stacey outlines what is at stake for North Carolina, why undercounted communities remain at risk, and what leaders, philanthropy, and communities can do now to prepare for the 2030 Census.
