Our work does not end there. Each year we plan a series of community outreach and fundraising events.
The vision of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is to ensure a society in which all individuals have equal rights without discrimination based on race. The mission of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate racial hatred and racial discrimination. We are a non-profit organization, all officers and executive committee members at the local and conference level work on a volunteer basis to defend those who cannot defend themselves. We are successful because our members participate and we receive support from the greater community. However, it takes more than a great plan; it takes great people to see that plan through. NAACP Modesto Stanislaus Branch 1048 knows that strength not only lies in our words, but in our actions as well. We have set out on a mission to help heal the world, and will not quit until our job is complete. Founded in 2000, the NAACP Modesto/Stanislaus Branch 1048 inspires action, serves donors ,and supports communities. We’re driven by a firm belief in the power of humanity, and we will do anything it takes to make an impact.

How does congressional districts Determined?
After each census count, the Census Bureau provides states with initial population numbers.
The bureau provides states with block-by-block population counts. These census blocks are areas bound by visible features, such as roads and railroads, and invisible boundaries, such as property lines and county limits.
State mapmakers use the census blocks to redraw congressional districts of equal population size to account for population fluctuations.
As of April 1, 2020, the total U.S. population for apportionment was 331,108,434. Although it can vary, the average House district now represents 761,169 people – up from 710,767 in 2010.

States typically redraw their congressional districts every 10 years, following the completion of the U.S. census. Typically, census data is published at the end of year in which a count takes place. The most recent U.S. census was carried out in 2020. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2020 census results were delayed until April 2021.
The next census will take place in 2030, and states will begin the redistricting process again in 2031.
States will occasionally update their districts in between the processes that occur every decade. For example, Alabama and Louisiana used new lines in 2024 following court orders, and lawmakers in North Carolina and New York made adjustments to their map. Ohio plans changes in 2025.

Redistricting 101:
Redistricting is the redrawing and reshaping of voting districts. The process can lead to gerrymandering, which involves partisan mapmakers drawing districts that strongly favor their party by diluting the voting power of their opposition's supporters, either by dividing those voters across several districts or crowding them all into a single district. Although states redraw congressional districts every 10 years, courts may invalidate maps within those 10 years and impose new boundary lines or direct legislatures to do so.
