History of We the People in Arizona

The Arizona We the People program found its home with the Arizona Foundation for Legal Services and Education in 1994 . Since the Arizona Foundation for Legal Services and Education has been the state sponsor of the program, more than 1,000 teachers have participated in professional development sessions and received free sets of We the People textbooks. As a result, more than 30,000 students per year have learned about the US Constitution and Bill of Rights in an exciting, hands-on way.
