The Arizona Cardinals empower students off the field

More from this show

The Arizona Cardinals are empowering young leaders on and off the field. Their Civics Matter program cultivates year-round civic education for Title I high school students.

The program connects civil knowledge to real-world decision-making and leadership, aimed at shaping future leaders.

Students in grades 6-11 can access course materials online for no cost. Those in grades 9-11 can compete for a chance to fly to Washington, D.C., on the Cardinals team plane.

During the program, students attend the Civics Matters Summit, where they visit historical landmarks and meet with elected officials.

Shaun Mayo, Arizona Cardinals Chief People Officer, joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss how the initiative is shaping the state’s next generation of leaders.
