CTLI Civic Educators Conference
The Civic Thought & Leadership Initiative will host its annual Fall Civic Educators Conference on Tuesday, Oct. 7, 2025, on UVU campus in Orem, Utah, starting at 8:30 a.m.
Designed for fifth-grade and secondary-school teachers and those who support them, the theme of the conference is American Inheritance: Claiming the Declaration's Promise. Teaching the rising generation will be the primary focus of the conference.
Co-sponsored by the National Constitutional Center and Bill of Rights Institute, the conference will consider the context and impact of moments in our nation's
history, to include the Seneca Falls Convention of 1848, the buildup to the Civil
War, the Lincoln–Douglas debates, and Martin Luther King's letter from Birmingham
Jail.
Sessions will feature presentations on using primary sources as teaching tools in
the classroom, educator resources, and breakout groups.
David Bobb, president of the Bill of Rights Institute, will be the keynote speaker at the conference.
