Become an Ambassador with U.S. Census Bureau’s Statistics in Schools (SIS)
SIS ambassadors will champion the program in their classrooms, schools, and communities, and in doing so promote a complete 2020 Census count. As leaders in the program, ambassadors will:
- Promote national SIS events on social media platforms, leading up to and during events, to increase awareness and engagement.
- Network with fellow ambassadors.
- Receive exclusive 2020 Census promotional items for use in and outside the classroom.
Ideal candidates are active pre-K through 12th grade teachers who are excited to spearhead a national initiative at their schools while shaping the future of their communities through social media, collaboration, and leadership.
Making sure ALL children are counted in the 2020 Census is especially important for education. Responses to the 2020 Census survey will determine how more than $675 billion in federal funds is distributed to communities each year for the next 10 years, including money for school programs such as:
- Special education
- Teacher training
- Technology
- School lunch assistance
- Head Start
- Title I funds
- After-school programs
As an SIS ambassador, you will help your students, schools, and communities benefit from the 2020 Census. Email
