Webinar Tomorrow: Planning for Upcoming 2020 Census Data Products Join us Thursday, Sept. 30 at 3 p.m. ET to learn more about the 2020 Data Product Planning Crosswalk, which compares proposed 2020 tables to published 2010 tables. During the webinar, our subject matter experts will show data users how to use the Crosswalk, provide updates since the previously released Crosswalk, and discuss opportunities to engage in the development process. |
