These activities and games educate, equip, and empower young people to build community, trust, and open communication with others in their community.
We define civic virtue and give examples of ways to exhibit civic virtue for the common good.
Create a past, present, and future timeline of personal philanthropy.
As a group we define good citizenship, including the classic Roman concept of civic virtue (putting the common good above individual need).
Learners explore what it means for responsible citizens to demonstrate civic virtues of justice, kindness, peace, generosity, and inclusion.
Young people learn about the variety of ways citizens can become active participants in the community: political parties, interest groups, voting, and providing public service.
In spite of the diverse roots that make up our country, some immigrants who come for opportunity and refugees who are forced to leave their homes are treated with disrespect or even cruelty. Young people have the opportunity to speak up and raise awareness of the beauty of diversity and value of embracing people of all backgrounds and situations. This toolkit guides youth, educators, group leaders, families, and community groups as they investigate the issue of immigration and refugees and prepare to take action.
