Census 2010 & Fiscal Policy for Nonprofits (Covington)
Date: 02/10/2010
Covington Council Chambers
222 Kirkland St.
Covington, LA
The 2010 Census impacts all Louisiana residents by affecting the amount of federal funding state programs receive. Louisiana's thousands of nonprofits provide a unique opportunity for the Census to reach traditionally inderrepresented populations Learn how Nonprofits Count!, the LANO 2010 Census initiative, will help Louisianans receive their fair share. As the state legislature prepares for the 2010 Regular Session the nonprofit sector must be a strong voice in the public dialog. Policy issues affecting nonprofits include mid-year budget cuts, line-item appropriations, and large state deficits predicted for coming fiscal years. In a time of increasing demand and shrinking government services, how can nonprofits ensure that Louisiana's limited resources are put to best use? LANO President and CEO Ann S. Williamson will join Louisiana Budget Project Director, Edward Ashworth and LANO Vice President of Public Policy, Alison Neustrom, Ph.D., to lead the discussion.
