Organization

National Constitution Center
The National Constitution Center was established in 1988 to increase awareness and understanding of the US Constitution, the Constitution's history, and the Constitution's relevance to our daily lives so that all of us ''We the People'' will better understand and exercise our rights and our responsibilities. Watch this Streettalkin Philadelphia Video to see a sneak peek of the National Constitution Center!
The National Constitution Center is FREE for active military personnel year-round!
