Civic Clarity Foundation is committed to respect and reconciliation, acknowledging the traditional and unceded territories we operate on, including those of the **Haudenosaunee**, **Anishinabek**, and **Chonoton** Peoples. We recognize their long history of stewardship and their ongoing contributions to the land and our shared future.

We translate complex policy and political processes into clear, accessible language, making civic education engaging for everyone.
Our mission is simple: to strengthen democracy by ensuring every citizen, especially youth, has access to clear information and meaningful ways to participate in governance. We envision a future where accountability and transparency are standard practice, not exceptions.
Civic Clarity Foundation was founded in 2022 by a group of educators and policy analysts who saw a gap in civic education and youth engagement. We were inspired by the need to demystify complex political systems and provide young people with the tools to demand better governance.
Our flagship program trains young leaders (age 14-18) in policy analysis and advocacy. We run mentorship sessions and policy brief competitions, connecting participants directly with municipal and federal policymakers.
Focus: Youth Engagement, Policy Training.
