Why Choose Experience in Democracy?
Experience in Democracy is our flagship program that prides itself in teaching American civics “hands on” to migrant, immigrant, and students and parents from developing communities. Onsite Training
One day training seminars design to teach, strengthen, and prepare participants to become
more active leaders and citizens. This training will support the goals of academic institutions,
leadership and community organizations by teaching practical skills and tools to promote
increased involvement. Activities include workshops, agenda development, presentations, letter
writing and press orientation. Summits
Held annually, BCLI hosts a series of congressional summits to promote civic participation,
visibility and change in developing communities. The summit brings together participants from
across the US and the globe to interact with members of Congress, regulatory agencies, and
national organizations to discuss issues affecting developing communities. ConferencesCurrently Updating... |
