WHAT IS CT-TAG?

The Connecticut Teach Against Genocide Campaign (CT-TAG) works to pass and help implement legislation to have genocide education included in the curricula of Connecticut secondary schools. The legislation will also appropriate funding to ensure that educators have the necessary training and resources they need to teach this complex subject. For more information, please contact Danielle.
