The Law and Civics Reading and Writing Institute (Lcrwi): General Education, Training, and Recruitment

This student guide is a companion for Righting America’s Wrongs: A Best Practices Manual for Educating Black Male Youth by Dr. Stanley Howard. It is designed with two other purposes in mind. First, it should be seen by adult learners in the courses, as a personal journal that will not only deliver important information on the human development of vulnerable children in their early years, but also as a problem solving learning tool to help facilitate the required service learning part of the course. For example, sections such as What Do You Think,
Community Service Learning,
Solutions that Solve, and the Glossaries both General and LCRWI are intentionally designed to engender reflection, and action-oriented community engagement. Secondly, the guide was created to provide assistance to teachers, trainers, facilitators, and adjunct faculty at the Law and Civics Reading and Writing Institute.
