Census Delays and Challenges. While California is ahead of the rest of the nation, its self-response rate on the census is lagging compared to ten years ago. To overcome the challenges of the pandemic, state leaders and community organizers are ramping up a week of actions, including car caravans, phone banks, webinars and virtual events in the state. The deadline to respond has been extended to mid-August. A leader of philanthropy joins a conversation on the road ahead.

Guest: Jesús Martínez, Executive Director, Central Valley Immigrant Integration Collaborative, Fresno, CA.
