BACKGROUND: In late 2019, the Arkansas Community Foundation, working with Arkansas Counts accepted applications for grant funding from organizations and municipalities to support their public education and promotion efforts focused on reaching hard -to -count communities about the importance of the 2020 Census and encouraging everyone to complete their census questionnaire. DISCUSSION: Although the City's grant proposal was not accepted in the first round of awards, when additional funding became available, the Foundation made a second round of grants, and in February the City of Fayetteville was awarded $20,000 for census promotion. The Census Bureau's Response Outreach Area Mapper (ROAM) application was developed to make it easier to identify hard -to -survey areas and to provide a socioeconomic and demographic profile of these areas. The application shows that the City's Hard -to -Count (HTC) population is primarily located in west Fayetteville and the U of A campus area—neighborhoods where many University of Arkansas students live in off -campus apartments, and where there is a higher density of low-income and immigrant residents. The estimated low response score in these areas is as high as 32%, which translates to a significant loss of potential federal funding for the very services that help to support this community. The grant will allow the City to step up its education and promotion efforts to these areas, including the production of door -hangers and/or direct-mail pieces to go to targeted neighborhoods, placement of advertising targeted at students and lower-income residents, Mailing Address: 113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov Fayetteville, AR 72701 printing of posters and other collateral materials, and to support the possible hiring of a part-time intern to help manage the campaign and volunteers. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: None. There is no match required for the Arkansas Community Foundation Grant. Attachments: City of Fayetteville Arkansas Community Foundation grant proposal. ARKANSAS COUNTS 2020 CENSUS INITIATIVE APPLICATION: "I COUNT" FAYETTEVILLE 1. City of Fayetteville, Arkansas 2. 113 W. Mountain Street, Fayetteville, AR 72701 3. www.fayetteville-ar.gov. Mission: To keep Fayetteville a vibrant and welcoming city that encourages diversity, creativity, and innovation while providing our citizens the opportunity to thrive. 4. Tax ID Number: 71-6018462 5. Mayor: Lioneld Jordan 6. Census Outreach Manager: Susan Norton, Director of Communications a. Member of HTC Community? No b. Phone: 479-575-8330 c. snorton@fayetteville-ar.gov 7. Grant Amount Requested: $20,000 8. We plan on targeting Hard to Count populations within the City of Fayetteville, with particular emphasis on non-English speakers, foreign -born residents, homeless individuals, low-income residents, and residents with limited or no internet access. PART II: Proposal Narrative Organizational Capacity and Mission 1. The City of Fayetteville engages City residents through regular public input meetings centered around specific projects or initiatives. At these public meetings, community members may ask questions and provide feedback, offer concerns, make suggestions. To increase community awareness and engagement, in 2018 the City opened SpeakUp Fayetteville, a civic engagement portal on the web that offers residents opportunities to engage with the City regarding a variety of City initiatives through online surveys, forums, and interactive maps. In 2017, the City of Fayetteville adopted a Welcoming Plan aimed at making the City a more welcoming community for foreign -born residents and new Americans. The plan was designed not only to make living in Fayetteville easier, but to encourage deeper, ongoing engagement with City government. In 2019, the City removed the requirement that applicants for City board and commission seats be registered voters, thus opening numerous opportunities for non -US citizens to participate in the City's government. Fayetteville's "I Count" project will further our City's ongoing mission to be a welcoming, diverse, and inclusive community with opportunities for all. The project will help us to engage foreign -born and other hard -to -count residents by providing the City with the resources needed to make and grow meaningful connections and establish networks within these communities. These will not only help ensure a complete count, but will ultimately help us increase two-way communication, build partnerships, and encourage residents from these demographics to participate in City government. Focus Community 1. The communities the City plans to focus on are often intersectional: English-language learners and foreign -born residents may not understand the process and purpose of the census, and in the current political climate may be distrustful of national government and reluctant to share personal information. Many low-income residents may not have regular access to the internet and may therefore feel unable to access the census questionnaire or may find it too inconvenient to seek out a means of completing the census. Homeless residents may not be reached by traditional efforts because of their lack of a permanent address. 2. The City's department of Community Resources has been working with individuals in low- to moderate -income communities for decades, providing assistance with housing, home repair and code compliance, and transportation, as well as administering Community Development Block Grants. In 2018, the City developed an online "Welcoming Hub," which serves as a one-stop information resource for newcomers to Fayetteville, specifically for the foreign -born. The Hub includes links to educational resources, such as English-language classes, job training, and citizenship preparation. It also provides simple instructions for basic, everyday tasks around the City, such as enrolling children in school, finding childcare, transportation options, city maps, and more. This site also provides information about the census. Outreach Strategies 1. Strategies and Activities Coalition Building Our core plan for the "I Count" campaign is to partner with organizations and institutions across the City who already have connections with HTC communities, and to work with them to find the best ways to raise awareness for their constituents. Planned partners include: Ozark Literacy Council, Canopy of NW Arkansas, Fayetteville Public Schools, Fayetteville Public Library, University of Fayetteville International Student Office, Boys and Girls Club of Fayetteville, and Engage NWA. Public Relations Informational Strategies • Feature census information and links on Fayetteville Welcoming Hub on the City website • Include census information in City press releases, February through May, 2020 • Create Informational videos to post to social media and be shared by partner organizations • Advertising and feature stories with Spanish language newspapers and radio • Arrange an interview on local NPR show, "Ozarks at Large," KUAF • Print and distribute posters to partner organizations and other key locations • Place on -bus advertising for Ozark Transit and University of Arkansas transit systems • Create a direct-mail piece for households in target demographics and create door -hangers for distribution by volunteers • Create computer toppers for public access computers at the public library • Design "I Count" stickers to make available at outreach events • Create display in the lobby of City Hall where residents come to set up water services or pay bill Community Outreach and Get Out the Count Events • Create a paid internship for college student from one of the HTC Communities to help manage the Outreach program, seek out advisors and influencers, and research outreach opportunities • Set up computer open -house events in City Hall and at partner institutions where residents without internet access can come in to fill out the census and ask questions • Attend special events with information and iPads that can be used for census completion on the spot. 2. We will reach an estimated 20,000 through direct mail to households and businesses in the targeted HTC areas of Fayetteville as described on the censushardtocountmaps202O.us website. Through community outreach and events, we hope to reach another estimated 20,000 residents. The City can draw from existing business -license and resident records to compile mailing lists for direct mail. The Community Resources division field staff can assist in identifying target neighborhoods and disseminating posters, door hangers, etc. The Communications staff will deploy the PR campaign. Collaboration and Alignment 1. Fayetteville's "I Count" campaign will include working with representatives from key stakeholder institutions, communities, and partners to form a Fayetteville Complete Count Committee. Meeting monthly or bi-weekly as needed, this committee will devise a strategic plan that will also consider the efforts of the NW Arkansas CCC. 2. The Census Outreach Manager will participate in Arkansas Counts training and technical assistance. 3. The Census Outreach Manager or her representative will join the Arkansas Counts Complete Count Committee. Part III: Organizational Capacity & Budget Information 1. The total operating budget for the City of Fayetteville for 2019 was $168,111,000. 2. Susan Norton, Director of Communications, will serve as the City's Census Outreach Manager. Susan has managed the City's public relations efforts for four years. In addition, Susan serves as staff liaison to the City's Digital Inclusion Plan Task Force, and so is well-informed about community internet needs and resources. She is also a member of the City's Town and Gown committee, which facilitates communication and collaboration between the City and the University of Arkansas. Yolanda Fields, Director of Community Resources, has served the City and the people of Fayetteville for more than 20 years in this capacity. She is highly knowledgeable about the City's low- to moderate -income community and has worked with a number of organizations on a range of civic improvement projects. The Community Development department employs seven code compliance officers and case managers who work directly in the field with individuals and communities. Greg Resz, Geographic Information System (GIS) Coordinator has the technological capacity to identify the specific boundaries of neighborhoods or regions within the City and generate addresses for direct mail efforts within those areas. 3.
