FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANIZATION MISSION: TODAY, WITH THE FORMAL APPROVAL OF CONGRESS, THE SOCIETY CONTINUES EXPLORING AND INSTITUTING NEW AND CREATIVE WAYS TO BRING THE FASCINATING STORY OF THE CAPITOL, ITS INSTITUTIONS AND AMERICA'S UNIQUE HISTORY TO PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION AND AROUND THE WORLD. OUR AUTHORIZING LEGISLATION CHALLENGES THE SOCIETY TO TELL THE STORY IN A "MANNER THAT INSPIRES INFORMED PATRIOTISM." SOCIETY ACTIVITIES INCLUDE EDUCATIONAL TOURS, SCHOOL PROGRAMS, SCHOLARLY SYMPOSIA, OBSERVANCES OF HISTORIC EVENTS, ENHANCEMENT OF THE CAPITOL'S COLLECTION OF ART AND ARTIFACTS, RESEARCH AND WRITING ON THE PUBLIC CAREERS OF THOSE WHO HAVE SERVED IN THE CAPITOL, AND THE SALE OF PUBLICATIONS AND MEMENTOS OF THE HISTORICAL AND CONTEMPORARY CAPITOL AND CONGRESS. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 2 THE KEY NEW PROGRAM, CAPITOL CIVICS, PROVIDES TEACHER INSTITUTES DESIGNED TO BRING EDUCATORS TOGETHER TO DISCUSS HOW TO USE PRIMARY RESOURCES IN THE CLASSROOM TO TEACH CIVICS. THE INITIAL INVESTMENT FROM A CONGRESSIONAL APPROPRIATION ADMINISTERED BY THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS ADMINISTRATION ALLOWED THE SOCIETY TO PROVIDE TWO TEACHER INSTITUTES IN 2024. THE FIRST, IN FEBRUARY 2024, OCCURRED AT THE RUTHERFORD B. HAYES PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY AND MUSEUMS IN FREMONT, OHIO, AND BROUGHT 25 TEACHERS FROM TEN STATES TOGETHER TO LEARN ABOUT USING PRIMARY RESOURCES TO TEACH ABOUT THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE. AS PART OF THIS TEACHER INSTITUTE, THE SOCIETY IS WORKING ON A NEW PLAY ABOUT THE ELECTION OF 1876 AS IT WAS DECIDED BY THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE. ELECTIONLAND, THE WORKING TITLE FOR THIS NEW WORK BY JEAN BORDEWICH AND PRODUCED BY STORYWORKS AS PART OF THE SOCIETY'S NEW CAPITOL CIVICS WORK, IS THE LATEST ADDITION TO OUR TEACHING THE CONSTITUTION THROUGH THEATER SERIES. THE FIRST READING OCCURRED DURING THIS TEACHER INSTITUTE. THE SOCIETY PLANNED THE SECOND TEACHER INSTITUTE AT THE ABRAHAM LINCOLN PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY AND MUSEUM. WE PARTNERED WITH THE DIRKSEN CONGRESSIONAL CENTER, THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, AND THE CENSUS BUREAU TO PROVIDE A TEACHER INSTITUTE FOCUSED ON USING PRIMARY RESOURCES. TEACHERS SAW THE 13TH AMENDMENT ARCHIVED AT THE LINCOLN LIBRARY, THE DIRKSEN PAPERS FROM THE SENATE DEBATE ON THE LANDMARK 1964 CIVIL RIGHTS LEGISLATION AND HEARD A PRESENTATION FROM THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE ABOUT THE NEW MEMORIAL COMMEMORATING THE 1908 RACE RIOT IN SPRINGFIELD, ILLINOIS. THE 25 TEACHERS FROM 13 STATES AND THE NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS EXAMINED NEW RESOURCES ON THE DIGITAL LEARNING HUB AND BUILT A COMMUNITY OF INTEREST THAT WILL EXTEND BEYOND THE ONE-DAY EVENT. THE 2024 NATIVE AMERICAN SUFFRAGE SYMPOSIUM COMMEMORATING THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE NATIVE AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP ACT THAT GAVE NATIVE AMERICANS THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN FEDERAL ELECTIONS IN 1924 BROUGHT THE FINEST SCHOLARS AND PRACTITIONERS TOGETHER FOR A FULL-DAY SESSION WITH CONGRESSIONAL STAFF AND OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES TO UNDERSTAND THE COMPLEXITIES OF THIS ISSUE. OVER 100 PEOPLE ATTENDED IN PERSON WITH MANY MORE ONLINE. WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE VIDEOS ARE IN USE AS PART OF HUMAN RESOURCES DIVERSITY EDUCATION PROGRAMS AS NATIVE AMERICAN HISTORY IS SO OFTEN NEGLECTED. THE SOCIETY CONTINUES ITS VIRTUAL SERIES ON THE AMENDMENTS TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION - THE SITUATION AT THE TIME OF PASSAGE AND HOW THE AMENDMENT CONTINUES TO BE INTERPRETED. THIS SERIES WILL CONCLUDE IN 2024, AND THE PRESENTATIONS CONTINUE TO BE AVAILABLE ON OUR YOU TUBE CHANNEL. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: THE NEW PROGRAMS DESCRIBED IN QUESTION 2, CAPITOL CIVICS AND THE NATIVE AMERICAN SUFFRAGE SYMPOSIUM, WERE THE SOCIETY'S SIGNATURE ACHIEVEMENTS FOR 2024. THE USCHS' FLAGSHIP PROGRAM THE WE THE PEOPLE CONSTITUTION TOUR PROVIDES OVER 1000 STUDENTS EACH YEAR A FULL DAY IN-PERSON TOUR OPPORTUNITY TO UNDERSTAND THE THREE BRANCHES OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. VISITING PLACES RELATED TO THE CONSTITUTION INCLUDING THE U.S. CAPITOL, THE WHITE HOUSE VISITOR CENTER, THE GEORGE MASON MEMORIAL AND THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES, STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS DISCUSS ISSUES PERTAINING TO THE CONSTITUTION. THIS TOUR, PROVIDED AT NO COST TO TITLE I DC PUBLIC AND CHARTER SCHOOLS, DEMONSTRATES TO STUDENTS FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE THAT EVERYONE HAS A ROLE TO PLAY IN AN INCLUSIVE DEMOCRACY. DURING THE PANDEMIC WHEN IN-PERSON TOURS WERE NOT SAFE THE SOCIETY CREATED A DIGITAL RESOURCE HUB TO BRING TOGETHER IN ONE PLACE VIRTUAL TEACHING RESOURCES FOR TEACHERS. THIS VIRTUAL EDUCATIONAL HUB INCLUDES RESOURCES FROM THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, THE WHITE HOUSE HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION, THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES, THE U.S. CAPITOL VISITOR CENTER AND THE SUPREME COURT HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND CONTINUES TO GROW. IN ADDITION TO OUR EDUCATIONAL TOURS, THE SOCIETY PARTNERS TO BRING THE HISTORY OF OUR REPUBLIC TO LIFE VIA THE ARTS. WE HAVE TWO PLAYS ON OUR HUB, BEAUTIFUL AGITATORS, DESIGNED TO TEACH HOW THE CONSTITUTION INSPIRED THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT, AND NOW'S THE TIME, EXPLORING THE END OF RECONSTRUCTION THROUGH THE EYES OF CONGRESSMAN THADDEUS STEVENS. BOTH ARE PRODUCED BY STORYWORKS THEATER COMPANY AS PART OF OUR TEACHING THE CONSTITUTION THROUGH THEATER PARTNERSHIP. THE STAGE PRODUCTION AND CORRESPONDING LESSON PLANS ARE FOUND ON THE DIGITAL RESOURCE HUB OF THE SOCIETY'S WEBSITE. EACH PLAY IS ACCOMPANIED BY LESSON PLANS. EACH YEAR, THE SOCIETY PRESENTS EDUCATIONAL CONGRESSIONAL ENGAGEMENT PROGRAMS FOR OUR MEMBERS. THESE ANNUAL PROGRAMS HONOR CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEES, ENGAGE CONGRESSIONAL STAFF AND GATHER TOGETHER CAPITOL ALUMNI. THE SOCIETY PROUDLY SERVES AS A RESOURCE TO MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND CONGRESSIONAL STAFF AND THESE PROGRAMS COMBINE A UNIQUE HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE WITH A WELCOMING SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT. THE SOCIETY PROVIDES REGULAR WEBINARS HIGHLIGHTING TOPICS IN CAPITOL HISTORY. IN ADDITION TO PRESENTING AUTHORS WHOSE WORK DOCUMENTS CAPITOL HISTORY, THE SOCIETY HIGHLIGHTED IMPORTANT ANNIVERSARIES SUCH AS THE 200TH BIRTHDAY OF PRESIDENT ULYSSES S. GRANT AND THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE OPENING OF THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL. FOR BOTH THE GRANT AND LINCOLN COMMEMORATIONS, THE SOCIETY PROVIDED IN-PERSON EVENTS WITH DISTINGUISHED HISTORIANS. FINALLY, THE SOCIETY'S PUBLIC HISTORY SERIES CONTINUES TO PROVIDE AUTHORS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT THEIR BOOKS AND SCHOLARS THE CHANCE TO SHARE THEIR PERSPECTIVE ON THE HISTORY OF THE CAPITOL AND THE CONGRESS. PRIOR SESSIONS INCLUDED A SIX-PART SYMPOSIUM ON THE IMPACT OF WOMEN EARNING THE RIGHT TO VOTE, A TEN-PART SYMPOSIUM ON THE WORK TO BUILD A MORE PERFECT UNION, AND CURRENT PUBLIC HISTORY WEBINARS EXPLORING THE AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION - WHAT WAS THE CONTEXT WHEN THEY WERE ADOPTED AND HOW EACH AMENDMENT HAS BEEN INTERPRETED.
