My lawfirm is a corporate sponsor of Citizen Schools. Being involved in their program makes my company a nicer place to work. It brings employees together for an event we can all feel good about and it gets us out working in the community, meeting great people and great kids who we otherwise wouldn't know.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Whether for long term projects, such as preparing students for mock trial, or shorter seminars, such as discussions of Civil Rights history on Martin Luther King day, I am always impressed by how much Citizen Schools does to engage kid's and make them feel invested in their community.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
expand their services so that they could serve a larger portion of the community.
MY ROLE:
Volunteer & I've had the pleasure of volunteering with Citizen Schools several times through partnership programs with my law firm. .
