KETTERING, OH, UNITED STATES, November 18, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Civics Day Camp, a unique educational program designed to revitalize civic engagement across America, is expanding its reach through partnerships with national veterans organizations. The program takes a distinctly social rather than academic approach to teaching civics, making citizenship education accessible and relevant to diverse audiences.

Unlike traditional civics education, Civics Day Camp defines civics as "Learning and living the Duties, Rights, Opportunities, and Privileges of Citizenship ... or membership in groups and organizations." The four-hour event helps participants understand how civic principles apply across multiple aspects of daily life, from family and church to workplace and military service.

According to company representatives, the program successfully helps individuals realize they are members of multiple communities that include different ethnicities, beliefs, and opportunities. The non-academic approach aims to make civics an integral part of American culture, essential to the success of families, schools, churches, businesses, and the military.

The program is designed for families with two or more generations, preferably sixth grade and above with no upper age limit. Additional target audiences include service members returning to civilian life and leaders and members of businesses and organizations. Representatives from Civics Day Camp note that having diverse groups of participants helps identify diverse opportunities and brings about new solutions to community problems.

Based on the Golden Rule and the American Dream, the curriculum covers American history, aspects of communities, the Founding Documents, and current socio-political issues including the wealth gap, educational attainment, government spending, and disparity. Sessions include an introduction to local economic development and discussions about leadership, all supported by charts, graphs, photos, and visual presentations.

Each participant receives printed handouts with room for notes. Depending on sponsorship level, attendees may also receive American Flag lapel pins and pocket copies of America's Founding Documents. Working with sponsor organizations facilitates refreshments and a half-time lunch break.

The program is currently expanding through partnerships with national veterans organizations, utilizing their extensive networks, local posts, and knowledgeable veterans committed to national service. The program may undergo name changes and improvements with the planned expansion.
