Why Better Civics?
When people are equipped with knowledge of how government works at all levels and provided with the tools and resources to champion the issues affecting their neighborhoods, they are empowered to become more than just voters. They become more engaged, demanding better neighborhoods, better schools, better workplaces, and better elections.
This is Better Civics.
Facts That Make You Act.
We create educational resources to better explain how government works and to encourage individuals to be more civically engaged.
We work with community organizations and civic leaders to deliver these resources to their audiences in a trusted and effective manner.

Our Reach
Better Civics currently serves all residents in Philadelphia County, with narrowed or broadened audiences based on individual projects. Our work can cover the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, as the electoral process is fairly consistent statewide.
Over time, Better Civics will have the potential to expand our reach, because Better Civics is for everyone.
