Welcome to the Civic Education Network for Region 7!

Our mission is to facilitate relationships between community and educational partners to prepare youth to become ethical and effective citizens. Network partners come from K-16 education, community organizations and local government from a six county region in California's Central Valley.

Here are resources for educators, students and community partners. Civic and character education, service-learning and youth leadership development are just some areas of interest. Exemplary, new and exciting programs will be showcased. Partnerships, opportunities for service, and information on local, state and national events are always welcome.

Enjoy your visit!
