We’re excited to introduce a revamped State Policy Menu designed to streamline policymakers’ access to K–12 civic education policy recommendations.
This new concise format allows for quick comprehension of complex policy issues, making it easier to capture lawmakers’ attention and spark meaningful dialogue. Each one-pager provides a brief overview of a key policy challenge and solution; clear, actionable policy recommendations; and links to relevant legislation, reports, and articles. With this streamlined approach, decisionmakers can quickly grasp the latest policy trends and delve deeper into specific topics as needed.
The state policy menu continues to focus on:
- Strengthening civic course requirements;
- Increasing funding for civic learning;
- Improving professional development for educators;
- Aligning state standards with best practices;
- Encouraging student engagement in civics;
- Prioritizing media literacy, including artificial intelligence, in civic learning; and
- Implementing robust accountability measures.
The new policy menu also includes special pages for governors, secretaries of state, and America 250 state commissions.
State coalition members can effectively leverage the new policy menu by using the one-page summaries to engage policymakers in productive conversations, empowering coalition members to advocate and drive action.
