About Us

What is the Kentucky Civic Education Coalition (KCEC)?

The Kentucky Council for the Social Studies (KCSS) is organizing the Kentucky Civic Education Coalition (KCEC). Just like our state motto—united we stand, divided we fall—by collaborating with the bluegrass’ leaders, educators, and advocates for civic learning, we can stand together and make Kentucky a national example of civics as a core component of every young person’s education. 

MISSION​

Our mission is to promote civic education and engagement in Kentucky by convening a broad range of stakeholders committed to building support for legislation, funding, and policies that promote high quality and civic learning opportunities for students, teachers, and communities.

VISION

We envision a state where all students have opportunities for high-quality civic education that prepare them to be thoughtful, informed, and actively-engaged members of their communities, locally and beyond.
