GET
INFORMED
An informed electorate is vital to America. Today, it's harder than ever to sift through information about current events, political issues, and social problems to find what's true. Couple this with the overall tendency to argue about important topics which we often don’t even know the basics of and it's no surprise that the World Economic Forum has declared Misinformation and Disinformation as the #1 risk the world faces.
Inform Your Community leverages fun because we know time is valuable. Our free virtual programs focus on the timely and relevant topics people want to know about more. Our events provide great entertainment value and important relevant impactful proprietary curriculum.
Although our entertaining events are what we are known for, our curriculum is the heart and soul of the organization. Extensive discussion and consultation with experts plus considerable research provide us with a curriculum that is the basis for our event conversations, our infographic that gets mailed to all attendees and appears on our website, our Get Informed pages on our website about each issue we have covered. Plus, the videos of our events can be found on YouTube!
THE ABC's
Rather than starting with our ABC’s and 123’s we often skip over these and jump to discuss the advanced and complex ideas about a topic in which we become quickly entrenched. Inform Your Community gets back to the basics of important issues. Our 4C curriculum provides information that gets you the need-to-know foundational knowledge that no one ever taught you and that you haven’t had a chance to research yourself related to civics, civic engagement, civility, and civil rights.
Because every person is a stakeholder invested in a variety of issues, Inform Your Community lays the foundation of a broad range of cluster areas topics adapted from the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

When you are confronted with unfamiliar information about important issues like those mentioned here, be sure to check your facts. Take some time to check all the rumors you hear about a topic before jumping to conclusions. With so much information being circulated though word of mouth, social media, legitimate news sources, and not legitimate news sources, there is a lot to sort through.
If you are not sure if something is accurate or if something sounds just a bit too extreme, too good, or too bad to be true, always check whether what you are hearing, reading, or seeing is based in credible evidence. Check out these tools to help.
