Civic Learning Week 2025:

Civic Learning for a Strong Democracy

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Civic Learning Week 2025. More than 7,000 attendees joined us for 16 sessions, ranging from interactive classroom activities to a legislative advocacy session and a live podcast taping.

We hope that you ended the week feeling energized and engaged around civic education, and that you’re carrying the learning forward into your work this year.

We’re extremely grateful to our partner organizations who hosted sessions, planned the events, and helped publicize. It wouldn’t happen without you!
