DemocracyReady NY

DemocracyReady NY is a nonpartisan, multigenerational, statewide coalition committed to preparing all New York students for civic participation. We work collectively to:

– Raise awareness about every student’s right under the state constitution to an education that prepares them for civic participation.

– Strengthen policy, practice, and investment to help students develop the knowledge, skills, and dispositions they need to engage effectively in civic and political life, today and in the future​.

– Eliminate inequities in access to P-12 civic learning opportunities.

– Mobilize youth, families, educators, researchers, advocates, policymakers, and philanthropy to advance these goals.
