Our mission is to build a culture of powerful, responsible citizenship across the country. Through our programs, Citizen University inspires belief that a strong democracy relies on strong citizens—that we all have the power to make change in civic life and the responsibility to try. We are working to realize the country we know is possible: a mass, multiracial democratic republic that works. A society with healthy, responsive institutions where every person feels represented and knows how to contribute. A society where we share responsibility for strengthening community and country by reckoning with our past and recommitting to our future together. For the better part of a decade, curious citizens just like you have found civic inspiration, discovered new resources, and tapped into their power through our programs. No matter your background or race, your political ideology or family history, if you are looking to take a step further in building civic power and character for yourself and your community, you’re in the right place. Our programs offer you an experiential deep dive into concepts like civic power, civic character, and civic faith. When we each take responsibility and strengthen our resolve to live like citizens, we take ownership of our country and the challenges we face and are one step closer to realizing the promise of America.
