Oregon’s youth want to understand how our government functions, how to engage respectfully with differing viewpoints, and how to advocate with clarity.  Civics Learning Project engages teachers and students through programs including Mock Trial, We the People, Community Action Projects, Courthouse Experience Tours, as well as a variety of other classroom curriculum. Through these programs, students acquire the skills and disposition to effectively lead and participate in their communities and our shared democracy. Abby Laufman and Chris Hughes will present recent updates in CLP’s educational programs, their impact on students and teachers, and their influence on civic engagement in Oregon. Bring your friends and questions for lively Q&A!
