Am I Missing Something?

http://www.representativedemocracy.org/repdem_documents/ADTannouncement.htm

As part of a broad effort to foster stronger youth dialogue on the workings of representative democracy, The National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) and its Trust for Representative Democracy, with the Alliance for Representative Democracy, is launching a new national public service campaign entitled Am I Missing Something?

The campaign features students tackling misconceptions about representative democracy by enumerating the benefits of participation, illustrating how complex issues require compromise, and discovering why diverse interests all having a voice in the democratic process is important. Am I Missing Something? is part of a larger campaign geared toward engaging the emerging generation in a dialogue about the workings of representative democracy.  

Our residency program in Family Medicine is structured on a reflective practice frame, and your website was tremendously helpful to me in refining our Community Medicine curriculum this year. Thanks!"
