Classroom Law Project is a non-profit organization of individuals, educators, lawyers, and community leaders who work with Oregon’s schools and teachers to prepare our youth to become active, engaged, and informed participants in democratic society.  We provide evidence-based programs that bring teachers and students together with civic leaders, attorneys, judges, law enforcement, and policymakers to provide K-12 students with student-centered, authentic experiences that demonstrate how our legal system and government work.  We are a dedicated, collaborative and caring team of civic-minded individuals who work with an amazing network of almost 600 volunteers across the state to extend our reach and impact to a growing number of teachers and students.  One of our goals is to extend the reach of our programs to more teachers and students throughout the state.  Key to that initiative is our Educator Resource Community, which hosts Classroom Law Project digital resources and collaborative opportunities for civics educators throughout Oregon.  We are seeking a full-time Digital Community Manager to join our team to serve our expanding online community.
