The Civic Engagement Cluster is dedicated to understanding the ways individuals participate in their communities, contribute to American democracy, and develop a sense of responsibility and commitment to public service. A healthy democracy depends on inclusive and sustained civic engagement. This cluster aims to generate insights that support and explore how people take part in civic life and contribute to effective and equitable systems of democracy. The Civic Engagement cluster seeks to inform election administrators, policymakers, educators, activists, and political organizations committed to strengthening the national civic infrastructure.
