The Office of Financial Management (OFM) announced the availability of $2 million for Washington state cities, counties, and libraries. Grants will support efforts to reach out to residents regarding the 2020 Census, educate residents about the importance of the 2020 Census, and encourage community participation.

OFM is currently accepting applications. On December 16, 2019, they will formally consider applications received. Applications received after December 16, 2019, will be considered as they are received if money is still available. All applications should be sent to 2020census@ofm.wa.gov.
