The Center for Civic Education helps students gain an increased understanding of the institutions of constitutional democracy and the fundamental principles and values upon which they are founded. We help them learn the skills necessary to participate as competent and responsible citizens and develop the willingness to use democratic procedures for making decisions and managing conflict.

To fulfill this mission, the Center develops high-quality instructional materials, provides exceptional professional learning for teachers, and advocates for more vital civic education in the United States and emerging democracies.

In addition to the resources and services offered by the Center, we also collaborate with dozens of partner organizations nationwide. This network of civic educators and civil society organizations bolsters our work in numerous ways.
