Martin County Nonprofit Makes Learning about the Constitution Fun and Profitable for High Schoolers
The Center for Constitutional Values doesn't make the big headlines in Martin County. Those belong to blue-green algae and public records violations. But, trust me, this nonprofit, whose simple mission is to promote the community's understanding of the United States Constitution, is something very special.
A quote from James Madison serves as a kind of motto for the Center: "A well-instructed people alone can be permanently a free people."
I've not seen another county of Martin's size in any state, let alone Florida, produce such an important citizenship resource for young people, in fact for all people.
It ought to be branded, packaged and copied across the nation.
