CIRCLE’s New RAYSE Index

CIRCLE is committed to helping organizations and governments use research and data to improve civic life and close gaps in opportunities for civic engagement. This is why CIRCLE has developed the RAYSE Index (Reaching All Youth Strengthens Engagement).

The RAYSE Index brings data to bear on efforts to broaden access to youth engagement opportunities. The comparative county-level data can provide research-based support for making the case that engagement has a high potential for growth and for making decisions about where to invest resources (e.g. time, resources, funding).

RAYSE Index: Background and
User’s Guide

More detailed background on the data and methods used in the RAYSE Index, as well as a user guide, can be found here. There are several uses for the Index, and the Index should always be used with other forms of knowledge about existing youth leadership and civic capacities.
