Civic & Social Organization

California Center for Civic Participation is a non-profit civic education organization. We engage youth, sparking their interest with exposure to the real-life drama of the democratic process and sustaining it with active, hands-on programs on topics that are meaningful to young people. We develop their research, communication, and critical thinking skills, so that they can form their own ideas and express them effectively and with confidence. We listen to them, and follow where they lead. Though out programs, thousands of young people have become active players in the public policies affecting their communities, cities and states. In addition to making informed decisions on today's issues, they gain the skills to thoughtfully assess the questions of tomorrow. To empower youth to be vital participants in decision making processes at all levels.
