Senator Rivera Teaches Second Series of Community Civics Classes

State Senator Gustavo Rivera will be teaching his second series of community civic classes. This time the series will be in Community Board 8 at the Kingsbridge Library starting Wednesday, November 30th at 6:00PM. This course is FREE TO THE PUBLIC and we encourage Bronxites of all ages to attend. The course will focus on learning about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, the rights and rewards of citizenship and how voting and elections work. Senator Rivera’s civics course will start on  November 30th and will continue for three weeks with classes every Wednesday at 6:00PM. On December 7th, the course will be taught by a guest speaker, Irving Ladimer, chair of the Ethics Committee of Community Board 8. The classes will end on December 14th with a graduation ceremony to celebrate the completion of the course.

We encourage that you attend all three classes, but it is not necessary in order to participate. As a college professor in Political Science, Senator Rivera is excited to be teaching courses on civics in the 33rd Senate District.
