“I learned more about police brutality and its causes. I am really passionate about police brutality because of how big of an issue it is in my community of South Dallas. I learned there are certain streets in South Dallas that have more instances of police violence than others, such as the intersection around Cedar Crest and South Malcolm X Blvd. I love the Ignite Me program because we did a variety of different activities, it was never the same thing.”

Our 6 Phase Framework
Through our in-school community based character education program IGNITE ME, we provide youth with a communal, socially healthy environment that leads to a change in thinking and behavior.
The Ignite Me Action Civics curriculum is comprised of six critical components that allow us to engage students around civics and character education.
“My community issue was highway littering and I learned a lot through the Ignite Me program about this issue, such as how to adopt a highway, how to clean a highway and how to tell people to stop littering. I learned a lot from C.A.P. Day, it taught me how to speak to grown adults and how to professionally present.”
