Dr. Rosay guest lectures at Gruening Middle School

Dr. André Rosay, Justice Center Director, will present two guest lectures at Gruening Middle School on January 12 on the topic of sexual assault in Alaska. Students at Gruening Middle School are participating in "We the People: Project Citizen" and have decided to address the topic of sexual assault in Alaska. "We the People: Project Citizen" is a curricular program for middle school studnets that promotes competent and responsible participation in local and state government. The program helps students learn how to monitor and influence public policy. In the process, students develop support for democratic values and principles, tolerance, and feelings of political efficacy.
