Mission
public affairs information and education
Program accomplishments
- During 2024, the Civic Caucus developed plans for a 2025 interview series series to be entitled "Restoring Faith in Minnesota Institutions," which will feature accomplished speakers discussing important Minnesota institutions of public policy. To add an element of mentoring and engaging new leadership, each interview panel will pair two policy veterans with two high school or college age young persons, along with a moderator. Following each interview, a write up and Zoom recording will be distributed to the Civic Caucus readership. In 2024, the Civic Caucus was added to MNOpedia, a Wikipedia-like tool, run by the Minnesota Historical Society. Civic Caucus staff worked with MNOpedia staff to create an overview of the rich history of the Civic Caucus. The Civic Caucus also focused on website improvements, including a revamped, expanded, and improved Civic Directory, the comprehensive database of Minnesota civic organizations that the Civic Caucus maintains as a service to its readers and to Minnesota's public policy community. The Civic Caucus also continued work on a history project, aiming to document and analyze Minnesota's rich history of politics and policy, featuring politics, voting, campaigns, and political movements. A highlight of this initiative will be a curated and annotated list of significant Minnesota policy and leadership books. In addition, we continued work on a series of Guides to Minnesota's civic and political structure which we plan to host on our website and distribute to youth organizations.Expenses $27,558
