Program accomplishments

  • The Hart Center for Public Service is created to promote this fundamental and critical value of American citizenship, embodying the ideals and goals fundamental to Gary Hart's lifetime work. The Center will facilitate both academic and practical dialog and action that renews citizen engagement in our society's most pressing issues, bring together those who are already public service innovators with new generations of citizens equally impassioned to make a difference. We are in discussion with a leading Colorado academic institution partner on this initiative. There will be both academic and hands-on training components to the Center. The central theme to be explored is why a republic, including the American Republic, requires civic duty and citizen participation to maintain that ideal.
