About the CPCE
Overview
CPCE is a partnership dedicated to assisting schools
in creating a learning centered culture where students and staff
are inspired, committed and empowered to achieve. The Partnership
is guided by the Center for Youth Citizenship in cooperation with
the Sacramento County Office of Education and Reading Lions Center
and is supported by leaders from the business, education and legal
communities. CPCE implements K-12 school projects, sponsors an annual
statewide character education conference to convene interested parties,
and oversees the dissemination of key resources and research. A
current priority is blending CPCE’s effort with the work of
California Reading First. CPCE brings valuable knowledge and experience
to the table, having previously developed the character education
K-8 school models for California (as a USDE Partnerships in Character
Education Grantee) from 1995-1999.
To help coordinate and lend support to CPCE’s
projects, a Statewide Advisory Committee composed of members representing
over 25 agencies, companies, and governmental offices in California
meets monthly. This group of professionals is fundamental to the
implementation of CPCE’s activities.
