WHO WE ARE
Civics Unplugged (CU) is a nonpartisan 501(c)(3) social enterprise whose mission is to empower the leaders of Generation Z to build the future of democracy.
CU is powered by a digital-first team and community of thousands of Gen Z leaders committed to strengthening democracy through civic entrepreneurship across the U.S. and around the world.
CU's core team is based in NYC and represents decades of experience across politics, law, education, social impact, tech, venture, pop culture, media, and community building. It’s at this intersection of these many domains that the magic of CU emerges.
