Census awareness block party- Huston-Tillotson University

Huston-Tillotson University, a Historically Black College/ University in Central Texas, hosted a census awareness block party on November 7. It was an ideal event to host outdoors with the weather being sunny and warm.
A parade of booths were set up to discuss various topics related to the 2010 Census; for example, Census and Healthcare, Census and Schools, and Census and Immigration, amongst others.
Partners that joined the Census Bureau to message on the importance of next year's census included the National Pan Hellenic Council - Killeen/Ft. Hood Chapter, the Killeen Texas NAACP, African-American Capital City Chamber of Commerce, and the Huston-Tillotson Offices of Enrollment, Religious Life, Campus Life, and Health Services. Several student volunteers made the event fun and informative for their fellow students and event attendees.
