Wisconsin

Our First Statewide Initiative

Founding Civics in Wisconsin

Since 2019 JMC has collaborated with various campus programs in Wisconsin to offer professional development programs for teachers throughout the state. We support an annual seminar in civic literacy with the Center for the Study of Liberal Democracy at the University of Wisconsin Madison and have developed an innovative set of graduate courses for teachers with the UW-Madison Department of Political Science, the first of which took place in summer 2021. We are planning future programming in partnership with UW-Eau Claire and UW-Stout.
