What is the Bill of Rights Institute?

Description

Welcome to the Bill of Rights Institute. Established in 1999, the Institute is a 501(c)(3) not for profit charity focused on providing educational resources on America’s Founding documents and principles for teachers and students of American History and Civics. The Bill of Rights Institute engages, educates, and empowers individuals with a passion for the freedom and opportunity that exist in a free society. The Institute envisions a society in which all individuals enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is a society in which: -Students engage with and champion these rights for themselves and others. -Teachers educate students to seek knowledge and tackle challenges with these rights in mind. -Parents empower their children to apply these rights in their own lives through interaction, example, and dialogue.
