The Coalition on Human Needs holds a webinar ahead of the Census Bureau’s annual poverty data release to discuss how to quickly find and use national, state and local data. The webinar will give you step-by-step instructions to find the information you need, including trends over time and comparisons to other states.  All registrants will be sent those instructions and follow-up help when the Census Bureau releases its new reports.

Presenters:

Jared Bernstein, senior fellow, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
Bernstein, formerly chief economist and economic adviser for Vice President Biden and the Obama White House, and now a prominent writer and commentator on economic issues, will predict likely poverty and income trends in the new data. 

Deborah Weinstein, executive director, Coalition on Human Needs
Weinstein has been providing practical, hands-on tips on using the Census survey data for a long time.  Each year, she works to streamline the info so you can find and use poverty, income, health insurance, education, disability, race/ethnicity, employment and other data for the nation, and for states and communities.
