Hello all.  This question concerns using the info from Census 2000 in need 
statements for grant proposals.

In writing a new grant proposal, I wished to use NEW data from Census 2000 
regarding the Chicago neighborhoods my agency serves (instead of relying on 
the old 1990 data we've been using).  When I checked out the US Census on 
line, I read that Census 2000 info regarding INCOME and EDUCATION levels 
would not be released until June 2002.

Can anyone tell me--did I read and understand this correctly, or is there, in 
fact, some way that one CAN access Census 2000 income/education level info 
for specific communities?

If you feel that your answer may benefit many folks (and I know there are a 
lot of grantwriters out there), please feel free to post to the listserv by 
clicking on reply.

If you want to direct your answer specifically to me, please feel free to 
email me at my address: BRmidwest@aol.com

Thanks very much!
