Action civics sole purpose is to develop young people’s civic and political competence while strengthening communities through inquiry-based civics programs regarding local community issues. In small groups based on grade levels, teachers help their students learn about their community issues and take action on resolving those same issues. Actions civics truly shows students to be socially aware of their community, and to also do their part in taking care of their environment.
