DemocracyReady NY is a statewide, nonpartisan, intergenerational coalition of organizations and individuals committed to preparing all students for civic participation.
Goals: To promote all New York students’ right under the state constitution to develop the knowledge, skills, experiences, and dispositions needed to engage, today and in the future, as effective civic participants; to raise awareness about that right; to strengthen state education law, policy, practice, and resources to guarantee that right in every New York school; to mobilize the expertise of students, parents, educators, researchers, advocates, legal experts, youth-development specialists, policymakers, and philanthropy to work collectively toward these goals.
