The Nacogdoches Chamber of Commerce Fourth Friday Luncheon featured a presentation by U.S. Census Bureau Partnership Specialist Gina Moers whose message was simple: the census is safe and important.

"Safety is hugely important in the Nacogdoches area," Moers said. "Under Title 13, we're not allowed to share the data with any other agency. It's used only for statistical purposes."
