WHAT IS THE GOOD citizen project? 

What does it mean to be a good citizen? The word citizen can be simply defined as an inhabitant of a particular town or city. A good citizen accepts and respects all that are living within that community. Good citizens understand the need to protect the environment and community and do this through voting, paying taxes and following the laws. Being a good citizen also means serving on a jury, if you are called on, and respecting the opinions of others who are different from you. Good Citizen project is geared towards College students living in New Orleans. It’s a way to teach young adults answers to the Who and Why so that they can quickly be informed and make their own decisions on the how. The regular person who is trying to be a good citizen, uses this platform to understand the issues at stake in all areas of being a good citizen from local voting to pressing local environmental issues looming in the community.
