Civics for Everyone

The Bill of Rights Institute has always believed that all students should have access to a high-quality civic education. This is why BRI offers its classroom resources free of charge, and works continually to improve the accessibility of its resources and to increase the number of students the Institute can serve.

The Civics for Everyone initiative is supported by a coalition of dedicated partners, including leading technology companies, individuals, corporations, foundations, educational organizations, and disability advocacy groups. Together, we are committed to the ongoing work of helping all students, regardless of their circumstances, learn about our nation’s story, our government, and their rights and responsibilities as citizens.
