House of Hope is Census
assistance site

PRESS RELEASE DATE: MARCH 19, 2010

The Stuart location of House of Hope has been selected as an Authorized Census Questionnaire Assistance Center.

Census worker Christine Tufts will be stationed in the House of Hope food warehouse at 2484 SE Bonita St., 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday-Friday from March 19 through April 19.

All questionnaire assistance centers are equipped to field questions about the Census, the questionnaire and hand out replacement forms. Guides can be provided in 59 languages, along with large-print forms.

The questionnaire assistance centers are important to help raise the return rate of forms and thus give a clearer picture of services needed in a given area.

House of Hope will refer its clients needing assistance and encourages other area groups to inform people about this free assistance and the importance of the Census.

More information about the 2010 Census and other assistance centers can be found at 2010.census.gov or by calling 1-800-923-8282.
