Who We Are

The Academy for Public Service is a not-for-profit, non-partisan public service leadership organization that aims to educate students on the place of public service in our society.
By allowing students to model the roles of various elected offices we are teaching the complex world of public service at a foundational level. 

We believe that by enabling students to step into the world of public service as executive, legislative, and legal officials we are promoting civic education practically.

Our Mission

Civic education

To teach students how to harness their voices and address societal challenges through public service. We assist students in creating solutions to local and state issues to empower them to serve as ambassadors of their community.

Our Vision

Empowered leaders

The servant leaders of the twenty-first century would be rounded in their education on civic matters and empowered enough to lead the country and upkeep our democracy.
