Who Are Civitans? |
|
Local Heroes Making a Difference **********
Civitans are everyday citizens, just like you and me, who come together in communities throughout the world to make life better for their neighbors. Family, friends, neighbors and co-workers meet at local Civitan clubs to socialize, learn and serve in their communities.Starting with just a single club, and a vision for helping others, Civitan has grown to over 40,000 members in 24 countries, including youth and college programs.Founded on the most basic moral and spiritual values, Civitans’ commitment to identify and address needs in their communities have set them apart from other social and service organizations. |
|
Focus on Developmental  DisabilitiesOn an international level, Civitan is devoted to improving the lives of children and adults with developmental disabilities. This focus began in the 1950s when Civitan funded some of the first special education training for school teachers. That commitment continues today through local and international efforts such as summer camps, vocational programs, special Olympic games and cutting-edge research into Autism, Cerebral Palsy and Alzheimers at the Civitan International Research Center. |
