Center for Democracy and Citizenship Blogs on our Action Group
Yesterday's By the People blog post, from the Center for Democracy and Citizenship's Ellen Tveit, highlighted the project of the Citizens League's environment action group and a team of students at St. Bernard's School to build a rain garden at the school.
This project was one of two pilot action groups that we organized in 2007-2008 with the goal of giving young members an opportunity to build their civic organizing skills by leading a meaningful project of their own design. We learned a lot in this first round, and a group of members are meeting now to plan another round of action groups that will start in early 2009.
