Engaging and Inspiring Strangers to Action

We believe that our democracy news a new “civic mindset” if we are to survive and thrive.

At the heart of this vision is the idea that we need to and CN become wiser, more compassionate, and more active in working together to make a better world — and DCTMI’s “civic canvassing” will help you develop theses and other leadership skills and the mindset you need to make a difference!
