Encouraging Civic Engagement
Civic and community development.
The Democracy in Action program benefits a select group of students from congressional districts in communities served by the Cruise Industry Charitable Foundation (CICF). Through our program we aim to improve the civic involvement and political awareness upon which strong communities are built. It is also our hope that these students will discover their innate talents for leadership, learning, and compassion.
