  The Center for Civic Education is undertaking a joint project with a major publisher to gain recognition for Project Citizen students and the impact they are having on public policy decisions that are being made in their communities. The attached Word document is a reporting form that we are asking you to complete and return to the Center if you know of projects that resulted in a change. We would like to find out about Project Citizen classes who have taken a policy issue before some governing body or agency and had their proposed policy considered, and ideally enacted. The report may represent class activities any time over the last three school years.
