Constitutional Education
Understanding and educating others on our nation's founding documents is one of the primary components of the mission of The 912 Project. Here you'll find links to each of those important documents, as well as suggested constitutional seminars from the National Center for Constitutional Studies and other organizations. We'll also try to recommend resources and ideas for various outreach programs in which you can engage your communities and schools in constitutional education.Constitutional Education

Since some are an entire series, they make perfect candidates for a weekly viewing meetup or book reading club.
