In 2018, the Committee of Seventy launched Draw the Lines PA, a statewide civic education initiative for Pennsylvanians to draw their own election maps. We aimed to bring unprecedented transparency and citizen engagement to the once-arcane and hugely important process of redistricting. 12,000 people and 1,500 maps later, we succeeded beyond our wildest dreams.
An independent evaluation from ImpactED, through the Univ. of Pennsylvania in 2019, found that Draw the Lines has a positive impact in the classroom. We invite you to read the report.
