Join the Toronto Civic Engagement Program and explore the municipal government and services provided by the City. Students will learn about how leadership, public service and civic engagement influence decision-making at City Hall. The program explores municipal elections and the roles and responsibilities of your local councillor. Students will brainstorm ways to be engaged citizens at home, at school and as part of a diverse global community. You’ll receive a post-program resource package to continue civics learning in the classroom.
