DEMING, NM — Community members from Luna, Hidalgo,and Grant counties are officially launching their Census 2020 Get Out the Count (GOTC) campaign to ensure families throughout all three counties in Southern New Mexico are counted in the 2020 Census. The GOTC campaign will include educational components and canvassing efforts throughout these counties in order to reach these historically hard to count communities. Here is a statement from NM CAFé:
“The census isn’t only vital for our families to receive the resources that we’ve inherently deserve. But for rural communities like Lordsburg and other communities here in our part of the state, this could decide if we’re still around in the next 10 years.“ – Pastor Joseph Hill, Assembly of God Church in Lordsburg, NM
