CRF provides academic, non-partisan programs and curricula that increase civic knowledge, skills, and dispositions using research-based methodologies including content about government and policy, student-directed discussion, and authentic civic engagement. Some state or local laws impose specific requirements on certain subject matters or manners of instruction, including those involving civic engagement or policy advocacy. It is the responsibility of teachers, administrators, and school districts to determine how, if at all, state and local laws may affect the use of CRF materials or resources.

Todd Clark

November 23, 1933 - March 22, 2023

We are sad to share the passing of Todd Clark, Constitutional Rights Foundation’s former executive director. Todd’s decades of leadership in civic learning, creativity as an educator, capacity to build coalitions and partnerships, and strong belief that young people truly are the future of democracy propelled the work of CRF, and still does today. We honor his legacy.
