2020 Census count is underway and the data will determine how much money and power comes to each community. Yet eastern Kentuckians have been slow to respond. Rachelle Seger from the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky, KY State Rep. Angie Hatton, and the US Census Bureau's Michelle Elison talk about why it is so important to fill out those forms and be counted, especially those of us living in Central Appalachia. The data collected through the census determines funding for things like school lunches, educational programs, and improvements to roads and bridges. Census data is used to determine federal disaster relief, hospital funding, Medicare, Medicaid, and support for medical clinics like Mountain Comprehensive Health Corporation in eastern Kentucky. It is used for planning and preparation for natural disasters and epidemics such as COVID-19. The Census Bureau has delayed in-person outreach efforts making it more important than ever to self report. The 2020 census can be completed online at my2020census.gov, or by calling 844-330-2020. For Spanish call 844-468-2020. And of course you can fill out the paper form and return it post paid in the mail. It is not too late to be counted.

Kentucky and the rest of the nation are wrestling with the huge popularity of electronic cigarettes among youth. A survey by the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky found the number of youth who use e-cigarettes, an activity referred to as vaping, doubled from 2016 through 2018 for sixth, eighth, 10th and 12th graders. Research has found many non-smoking youth who use e-cigarettes are more likely to later turn to traditional cigarettes when compared to teens who didn't vape. Jefferson County Public Schools launched an awareness campaign on the issue, and U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell recently introduced a bill to raise the national minimum age for buying tobacco products from 18 to 21. WFPL's Rick Howlett talked to Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky President Ben Chandler and Dr. Daniel Conklin of the University of Louisville School of Medicine about the topic and how vaping affects Kentucky's youth.
