Civics Lessons Programs for Black Youth

The Brother's For Life Organization will create the Public Accomplishment model initiative, a national youth initiative of the Center for Democracy and Citizenship. The initiative like programs for black youth is to educate young people to become effective civic and political actors; in other words: to think and act as citizens.

The goals for The Public Accomplishment model is to promote youth to become “problem-solvers” in their communities and develop the skills to engage as active citizens. Our civics lessons for adults help youth shape their future.

Methodology

In nine months, The Public Accomplishment Model program will travel from an idea, to a possibility, to reality. The steps taken to commence this program in nine months are repeatable. The aim behind building an adult care civic centre is to help youth make their future brighter.
