In this episode, Julie Silverbrook, chief content and learning officer at the National Constitution Center, speaks with Kelly Siegel-Stechler of Harvard University’s Safra Center for Ethics about civic formation: how children develop a sense of agency, belonging, and responsibility to others, and the important role parents play in that process. They explore how everyday family experiences, from making decisions together to navigating disagreement and disappointment, help children recognize that their voices matter and that they have something meaningful to contribute to their communities.
