Youth for Justice, the national coordinated law- related education (LRE)
consortium funded by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency
Prevention of the United States Department of Justice, invites 100 middle
and high school classes across the United States to teach others about the
fundamental ideas of American democracy through the Third Annual National
Teach-In celebration of National Youth Service Day and National Law Day. The
first 100 classes to register will receive a mini-grant of $200 which may be
used to buy materials to conduct their teach-in, provide law-related education
resources for their class or school library, host a teach-in conference
with another school, or donate to a school club or charity.
Register a class with the National Teach-in Registration Form
by January 31, 2006. Participating classes agree to: select a lesson from
the National Teach-In website they want to con- duct for a teach-in between
April 17 and May 7,
2006; report their activity to Youth for Justice; and write to their
Representative in Congress about their work.

coordinated law-related education program of the Office of Juvenile Justice
and Delinquency Prevention of the Unites States Department of
Justice. This project is supported by Grant No. 2003-MU-FX-K009 awarded by the
