| The California Indian Manpower Consortium, Inc.
has been designated as a Census Information Center
by the U.S. Census Bureau. The Census Information
Center (CIC) Program began in 1988 as a joint venture
between the U.S. Census Bureau and the National Urban
League, a New York City based nonprofit organization.
This founding, joint agreement between the Census
Bureau and the National Urban League has since grown
to include five "lead" nonprofit organizations
and 54 nonprofit organizations nationwide. The purpose of the CIC Program is to make census
information and related data more accessible to the
under-served, minority, and lower income communities.
The CIC is also responsible for presenting the Census
Data in ways that are easier for their constituents
to access and understand. CICs assist the communities
they serve in obtaining specific, detailed information
pertinent to their needs. This information comes
from customized research and data tabulations, producing
profiles or comparisons, and creating maps and tables
that contain specific results. The CIC acts as a valuable mediator between the
U.S. Census Bureau and the communities they serve.
Being a community based organization, the CIC is
able to stress the importance of participating in
the data collection methods used by the Census Bureau. The information gathered through the Decennial Census,
the American Community Survey, the Economic Census,
and other Census Bureau research methods play a major
role in community and government decisions regarding
program planning, policy development, needs assessment,
and the allocation of federal funds
Services Provided Include: -Community workshops on where
