Description

Attention all ACS data users!

Registration is now open for the 2017 American Community Survey (ACS) Data Users Conference, to be held on May 11-12, 2017 at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) Madison Building located at 600 Dulany Street in Alexandria, Virginia (a five-minute walk from the King Street Metro station). Space at the conference is limited and registration is on a first come/first served basis. There is no registration fee for the conference but participants are responsible for covering their own expenses, including travel, hotel, and meals. The deadline for registration is Friday, May 5th.

The Population Reference Bureau (PRB) is organizing the conference in partnership with the U.S. Census Bureau and with guidance from an ACS Data Users Group Steering Committee. We have put together an exciting program that brings together more than 50 contributed presentations by ACS data users, invited sessions with Census Bureau staff, informal roundtable discussions, and opportunities for networking. The conference will begin at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday May 11 with presentations by several Census Bureau senior executives, including John H. Thompson, Director of the Census Bureau; and Victoria A. Velkoff, Chief of the American Community Survey Office. The conference will end at 4:15 p.m. on Friday, May 12.

Session topics will include:

  • Assessing Health Insurance Estimates with ACS Data
  • Producing ACS Data Profiles for States and Local Communities
  • Preliminary Results from the 2016 ACS Content Test
  • Using the ACS for Model-Based Estimates
  • Comparing or Combining ACS Data with Other Data Sources
  • Using the ACS to Monitor Public Health
