This one-page fact sheet presents findings from a quasi-experimental study to examine the effects of the We the People program on high school students' political knowledge, civic skills, and civic attitudes. The study included 822 program participants who were compared to 735 students in high school government classes with similar demographics. In addition, We the People students' post-survey scores were compared with the scores of 119 political science students at two universities. Participating students made significantly greater gains than comparison students in their understanding of the following: (1) core values and principles of democracy; (2) constitutional limits on governmental institutions; and (3) rights and responsibilities of citizenship.
