Welcome!
Thank you for visiting! The following list explains the content of our Web pages. Briefly and somewhat ambitiously stated, our purpose is to inspire a “civic awakening” among our fellow American citizens. Rather than our defining what we mean by that statement, decide for yourself by perusing the pages on this site from time to time.
- The Grand Jury: What grand juries in California and elsewhere do, what they don’t do, what they should do, and the civic consequences thereof, with particular emphasis on civil grand juries in California
- Civic Commentaries: Musings about self-government and related topics
- Civics Education and Home Schooling: Selected resources for home-school parents and students at large
- Local Government Facts: Examples of facts about selected local government services in California and, occasionally, elsewhere
- Publications and Services: Announcements about monographs, studies, and training opportunities
- Library: Previous postings of selected editorials, commentaries, and related material
- About Us: A brief history of the American Grand Jury Foundation and its purpose
- Terms of Use: How materials may be used, our privacy policy, accuracy of data, security, and advertising
The American Grand Jury Foundation (AGJF) is a 501(c)(3) corporation dedicated to encouraging responsible and effective interventions by grand jurors and other citizens into local government affairs. The AGJF is a nonprofit corporation that pursues its objectives though a nonpolitical and nonpartisan research and publication program.
- This entire site is new and will continue to be updated. Check back occasionally to read new postings.
- What kind of citizen do you want to be?
- Some notes on the fine art of data dredging
