Enclosed in the issue, CIRCLE is pleased to provide a copy of the Special Report “Civic Skills and Federal Policy.” This report is the result of a meeting convened by CIRCLE, scholars, civic leaders, and federal officials. The purpose of this meeting was to develop a federal policy agenda for civic skills. The conference was co-sponsored by the Campaign for the Civic Mission of Schools and Strengthening our Nation’s Democracy (SOND) and took place in Washington DC in April 2010.
