My2020Census.gov. Every 10 years, every person on U.S. soil is required to be counted, by order of the Constitution. For households that don't respond as required, a census taker will knock on their door. No area is too remote. No outskirts too far. “Census takers are in rural parts of Alaska on snowmobiles,” Cook says, and for coastal fringes, “census takers will kayak to communities that are not connected to roads.” Air1's Marya Morgan talks with Michael Cook of the U.S. Census Bureau about how the numbers are used and Rev. Dr. Marlyn Bussey, pastor of St. James AME Zion Church about why she thinks faith leaders should actively encourage people to participate.

Nat'l Domestic Abuse Hotline 1-800-799-7233 www.thehotline.org/ Physical bruises are only small part of what some women and men suffer says Annette Oltmans of The MEND Project, which brings awareness to what she calls ‘covert emotional abuse.’ “Victims begin questioning reality and their own sanity,” explains Oltmans, herself a survivor of domestic abuse – and a Christian – who knows firsthand what’s it like to ‘live it.’ Pastor Paul Cole, president of the Christian Men’s Network, has been deeply concerned by the quarantine effect on families already stuffed in a pressure cooker of unhealthy reactions. “A lot of times, we as men act out of anger, rage, disappointment – and we lash out at people,” he says, urging men in this trap to reach out for help.

Pastor Land shares some positive thoughts on what we may value more as we eventually come out of the COVID-19 pandemic.

So the people come through, and they pop their trunk – they don’t even have to get out of their car – they pop their trunk and our people put the bags of groceries in trunk and then they’re free to go,” explains Pastor Troy Martin. ‘We really want to be Jesus to the community.’
