The Civic Education and Engagement Division is Rhode Islanders’ connection to learning opportunities related to elections, open government, and our state’s history. The Division provides resources, programs, and experiences for anyone who is interested in becoming more civically engaged in Rhode Island, with a deliberate focus on students and teachers.
