Civics Project

In 1996, Public Interest Institute developed and started distributing copies of THE IOWA CIVICS PROJECT, a twelve-unit curriculum on Iowa state and local government, to government teachers across the state. The chapters explore the historical development of government in Iowa; the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial branches of state government; Authorities, Boards, Commissions, Councils, and Districts; Local governments; education; political parties; interest groups; the mass media; voting and elections; and the rights and responsibilities of citizens.

The series is free to any government teacher or school wanting to teach this curriculum as a supplement to the government taught in the school system.
