Participatory Budgeting
Participatory Budgeting (PB) is one of the components of Civics for All's Partner School Program. PB is a student-driven, democratic budgeting process where school community members decide how to spend part of a budget on something to improve the school community. To learn more about Participatory Budgeting in schools or how to become a Partner School, reach out to civicsforall@schools.nyc.gov.
Students at P.S. 127 getting ready to cast their ballots for the PB project they most support.
For Partner Districts & Schools
Participatory Budgeting in schools tends to run each school year from November–March. If this is your first time supporting a student-driven PB process in your school, don't hesitate to reach out to your Civics Coach.
