Description
In 1997, the Office of Management and Budget revised the standards for collecting, tabulating, and presenting data on race. Census 2000 and the Census 2000 Supplementary Survey (C2SS) reflected these changes. This session reports on the major findings from Census 2000 with respect to race and ethnicity. Results from the C2SS are compared to Census 2000.
