With the 2020 census fast approaching, it is time to make sure we count all our children.

The Count All Kids Committee
The Count All Kids Committee is a group of national, state and local children’s organizations and allies that have joined together to ensure our nation’s children are counted in the 2020 Census. We work to raise awareness among the public, advocates, allies and policymakers, and to identify opportunities to improve the count of children, especially young children, in 2020.
