The Marshall-Brennan Constitutional Literacy Project is a program designed to mobilize talented upper-level law students to teach courses on constitutional law and juvenile justice in public high schools. Headquartered at the Washington College of Law in Washington, D.C., the Marshall-Brennan Constitutional Literacy Project was founded In the fall of 1999 by Professor Jamin Raskin. This movement for constitutional literacy is rooted in the belief that students will profit for a lifetime from learning the system of rights and responsibilities under the U.S. Constitution. Many citizens do not participate and feel disengaged from politics. The teaching fellows work with teachers, administrators and lawyers to teach students their rights as citizens, the strategic benefits of voting, how lawmaking occurs, and other fundamental constitutional processes.
