Our Mission
The mission of Civication, Inc., is to promote civic learning among those who reside in America by providing educational outreach intended to bring people together in study groups, public and private schools, colleges, universities, and other organizations to discuss, debate, and learn civil responsibility and the meaning and values of the United States Constitution.
The Need We Fill
It is our observation that we, as a society, must improve the way we teach our children what it means to be an American; to have a Constitution and a Bill of Rights; to have due process of law; and to live in a representative democracy. At Civication, Inc., we advance the understanding of America’s constitutional framework.
Who Benefits?
We, the people, benefit.
When we teach our youngest citizens the meaning of what it is to be an American and how to responsibly engage in civic matters, the chances increase that they will grow up as adults who understand, cherish, and respect our Constitution. They may then be well equipped to make meaningful contributions to our public and civil discourse.
