In 2020, the Decennial Census count of young children nationally was 5.4% below the true number. It is time to make sure we count all our children in every census and represent them accurately in the reported data.
The Count all Kids Campaign
The Count All Kids Campaign is a public outreach effort comprised of advocates, state and local policymakers, complete count committees, service providers, and other stakeholders interested in improving the count of young children in the census and demographic surveys.
We work to persuade families with young children to fill out the census questionnaire and make sure they include all their children. We also partner with the Census Bureau to ensure that every child is counted and data accurately represents children.

In 2020, the Decennial Census count of young children nationally was 5.4% lower than the accurate count. We understand that because young children are often missed for different reasons than adults, we need a different strategy for counting young children.
It is time to make sure we count all our children in every census and represent them accurately in data.
