During the economic, political, and social climate of 2017, the obvious need for a well-educated and informed group of young citizens has become increasing evident. In an effort to support students as they transition into adulthood, programs such as We the People and the MA Center for Civic Education promote civil learning and engagement in the curriculum of primary schools through higher education and throughout the community. The aim of their work is to help people understand and navigate local, state, and national government and bring back a focus on history and civics education, something that was marginalized statewide during the past decade. With the creation of a Civil Learning and Engagement Task Force, established by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, and a reworking of the framework for history and social science by DESE, the future for civics education is looking bright.
