As Adrienne Pon, executive director of the San Francisco Office of Civic Engagement and Immigrant Affairs (OCEIA), said, \u201cIt\u2019s not just about being counted; it\u2019s about creating your voice, letting people know that you matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ethnic minorities in San Francisco, and throughout the country, were vastly undercounted in the 2000 Census, resulting in a smaller allotment of much-needed funding for social welfare programs, education and local infrastructure. Lack of awareness prevented many Latinos and other minorities from taking part in the census, according to a study by the PEW Research Center.<\/p>\n<p>Latinos who considered the census to be \u201cvery important\u201d for the country were still less likely to participate than their African American and Caucasian counterparts, cited the study.<\/p>\n<p>Felix Fuentes, Outreach and Education Coordinator for the OCEIA, said he and other officials believe that undocumented immigrants fear that their information will be shared with other government agencies, such as ICE. However, a law protects the information and there is no question regarding immigration status. He added that any government official who violates this confidentiality faces five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.<\/p>\n<p>To address residents\u2019 fears, language barriers and other obstacles, Accion Latina established the Mission District Complete Count Committee, a network of trusted community organizations and leaders who will conduct outreach in population segments deemed \u201cHard to Count\u201d that officials say went uncounted in the last census.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe interest is to have everybody counted, because the city lost $300 million in 10 years\u2014money that we could have used for social programs, the schools, transportation,\u201d Fuentes said.<\/p>\n<p>The US Census Bureau listed twelve factors that make a district \u201chard to count,\u201d including: a high population of renters, crowded housing, lack of phones, low levels of education, non-traditional households, homelessness, poverty, dependence on public assistance, unemployment and linguistic isolation.<\/p>\n<p>With approximately 12 percent of the nation\u2019s population, California has more than 30 percent of the Hard-to-Count populations in the nation, according to a 2009 report by the Census Project.<\/p>\n<p>Fuentes explained that by analyzing 2000 Census data, city officials have identified several HTC areas in San Francisco\u2014neighborhoods such as the Tenderloin, Bayview Hunters Point, Chinatown, and the Mission. Each neighborhood was found to have many of the factors listed above.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are trying to focus on those areas and come up with activities,\u201d he said.\u00a0Fuentes himself focuses on hard-to-count areas with large Latino populations, such as the Mission.<\/p>\n<p>At the second meeting of the Mission District Complete Count Committee US Census Bureau and city government representatives discussed strategies with local nonprofits representatives to ensure that everyone in the neighborhood gets counted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNational ads are fantastic, but nothing is more powerful than you guys,\u201d OCEIA Executive Director Adrien Pon told the Mission-based nonprofit members at the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>Eighteen organizations across San Francisco\u2019s hard-to-count regions each received grants of up to $10,000 from OCEIA to put towards community outreach. Among the recipients are the Immigrant Legal Resource Center and Mission-based nonprofits Accion Latina, La Raza Centro Legal, Mission Language Vocational School, Dolores Street Community Services, Jamestown Community Center and Good Samaritan.<\/p>\n<p>Immersed in the daily life of the Mission community, the nonprofit members are readily able to address residents\u2019 concerns and come up with ways to make the census safe, empowering and even fun, rather than difficult and threatening.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the biggest concerns with the census is trust,\u201d said Joel Aguiar, day labor director at\u00a0La Raza Centro Legal, which houses the SF Day Labor Program and Women\u2019s Collective. He said of the people he works with, \u201cThey feel that their information will be given to government officials, immigration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aguiar related that many of the day laborers, like other Latino and immigrant communities, distrust most politicians and government officials due to past persecution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRarely do they [politicians] come to the program, except when they\u2019re running for office. Cops harass them (the laborers) on the streets. ICE officials come to pick them up. It\u2019s hard for them to open up given their previous experiences. So having the connection with nonprofit organizations\u2026like La Raza and other nonprofits, if we come to them and are like, the census is actually not that bad\u2026it\u2019s a totally different experience for them,\u201d he elaborated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlso, it\u2019s just not high on their priority list. Among the things that they worry about every day, filling out the census is not going to be one of them,\u201d Aguiar added.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that in the case of many day laborers, \u201cIt\u2019s not even going to be mailed to them, because most of them are homeless, so they\u2019re going to have to make an effort\u2026walk to the center or something.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For those who struggle daily to secure jobs and basic resources, the idea of taking time away from work to fill out government paperwork makes no sense, unless community members understand that participating in the census will bring money and resources back to their neighborhoods and families.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor our members it\u2019s easier to highlight the importance of it \u2026 for the other day laborers, it\u2019s going to take a little bit more outreach and education. We kind of have to meet them where they are,\u201d Aguiar said of LRCL\u2019s efforts to encourage census participation.<\/p>\n<p>He is working with other members of the MDCCC to organize a soccer tournament for on March 13 at Garfield Park that \u201cwill be a magnet for them to come, and by chance, learn about the census and be able to address their misgivings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the MDCCC is planning outreach activities at the 16th street and 14th street BART stations on March 20 and 27, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Aguiar added that\u00a0La Raza\u00a0is training eight members\u2014four domestic workers from the Women\u2019s Collective and four male day laborers\u2014to conduct outreach and answer questions about the census.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1612\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1612\" style=\"width: 576px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/census_meeting2CMYK.jpg?quality=89&#038;ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1612 \" title=\"Francisco Barradas\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/census_meeting2CMYK.jpg?resize=576%2C432&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/census_meeting2CMYK.jpg?w=576&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 576w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/census_meeting2CMYK.jpg?resize=333%2C250&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 333w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1612\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of the Complete Count Committee gathered at the El Tecolote offices to strategize outreach efforts for the 2010 Census. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThey are kind of leaders, and have volunteered extra time and attended extra meetings over the last six months. They\u2019re going to know about the census: how to answer questions and promote it, go to different spaces where a lot of day laborers, even the homeless, are and talk to them about it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s likely to be a lot more effective than if the staff members go, because they already have tons of connections with individual persons in those corners,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>In order to facilitate wider participation, the Census Bureau reduced its 2010 form to a simple ten questions, as opposed to the 52-question form used in the last census. As in 2000, a Spanish version will be mailed in predominantly Latino neighborhoods like the Mission. In addition, Questionnaire Assistance Centers will be set up throughout the district as spaces where residents can voice concerns and receive help from trained professionals in filling out their forms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an attempt to count those left out in the nationwide census ten years ago, the Mission has instituted a committee geared towards including the traditionally undercounted\u2014communities of color.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[216,99,221,131,219,222,14,217],"coauthors":[18468],"class_list":["post-1610","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-adrienne-pon","tag-census-2010","tag-felix-fuentes","tag-ice","tag-joel-aguiar","tag-journaleros","tag-mission-district","tag-ociea","entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
