MARCH 12 - In partnership with the U.S. Census Bureau, the Population Reference Bureau (PRB) is soliciting applications for membership on two separate steering committees to help us plan activities for engaging data users. PRB is a nonpartisan, not-for-profit research organization focused on improving people's health and well-being through evidence-based policies and practices. PRB has been a long-term partner to the Census Bureau, helping to inform and educate the data user community about the importance and valueof data from the American Community Survey (ACS) and the decennial census.
Both groups will be informal and nonadvisory and, as such, will not provide the Census Bureau with recommendations resulting from group deliberation or discussion.
We are seeking enthusiastic, hands-on data users to serve on these committees and anticipate 3-year terms for members to promote continuity of group discussions.
If you are interested in being considered for membership on either committee, please complete the application. Selected applicants will be chosen for just one committee, and you may indicate your preference of committee for consideration. PRB will collect all applications and will make selections for membership for both DUG Steering Committees.
The deadline for applications is Thursday, April 4, 2024. PRB will notify applicants regarding the selection decisions byTuesday, April 23, 2024.
If you have questions about the DUG Steering Committees or the application process, please contact Beth Jarosz, senior program director in U.S. Programs at PRB, at <[email protected]> or Diana Elliott, vice president of U.S. Programs at PRB, at<[email protected]>.
