Great story and article written by GC New England team member, Jayson Joyce about the power of Action Civics, as told to him by Lawrence High School teachers and students! So proud of the partnership between Lawrence Public Schools and Generation Citizen to build young people's civic skills, knowledge, and motivation! Democracy is alive in well in Lawrence, MA!
