The Constitution & Civility Center’s VISION STATEMENT
The American Heritage Constitution & Civility Center envisions a society where Constitutional thinking and civic charity prevail. We bring to life the stories of individuals who influenced and revered the Constitution and its ideals. We strive to expand Constitutional knowledge and civic engagement through experiential learning. In all of our teaching and learning, we work to re-enthrone moral self-government as the foundation of personal and civil liberty.
