Our Mission

Civic Ed Project promotes youth civic engagement through educational programs and curricula that provide teens with the knowledge and skills they need to actively participate in the civic life of their community.  We achieve this goal by working collaboratively with high school students, teachers, and administrators, as well as school districts, colleges, law schools, courts, community- based organizations, youth groups, and other educational non-profits.
