Mission Statement
The Center for Civic Responsibility's mission is to build civic community and restore citizen control and public responsibility for our democracy by providing citizens with the educational and legal tools to exercise their power in local, state and national decision-making.
Description
The Center for Civic Responsibility is a non-partisan, nonprofit organization that trains citizens to constructively participate in local government. We offer free citizen empowerment trainings, teacher workshops, high school education programs, and model laws and ordinances citizens can use to rebuild the civic infrastructure of their towns. Across the state of New Jersey, we partner with local, state, and national organizations and faith-based institutions to empower broad and diverse citizen populations while building community and organizational leadership and capacity.
