On Sunday, January 31st, the Karen and Chin Christian community in Clarkston gathered together to worship and learn more about Census 2010. The ACCC was on hand to provide Census promotional materials, and to meet with the Buddhist and Christian Burmese leadership to discuss and offer assistance with additional funding opportunities, particularly as it relates to funding to transport the many Burmese that do not drive to job testing sites or related Census events. The Burmese community is diverse both in ethnicity, language and faith. The majority of Burmese refugees in Georgia are either Buddhist or Christian. However, the Burmese CCC has been able to successfully collaborate across ethnic and faith-based lines to ensure every person in their community is counted.

Welcome to the ACCC

Welcome to the Asian Complete Count Committee of Georgia's website! Particularly in the past ten years since the last Census, thousands of Asian Pacific Islanders (APIs) are making Georgia their new home. Georgia now has the second fastest growing API population in the United States.

With this exponential increase, it is absolutely critical that we work together to get every single Asian Pacific Islander, refugee and ethnic-minority to complete their simple, 10-question Census form when it is mailed to them in March 2010.

Please learn more about why Census is important, see what others in our diverse API community are saying and doing to promote the Census, and find ways to get involved.

You absolutely count, and together we can be sure that our entire API community in Georgia counts!!
