The Center for Democracy and Civic Life hosts a reflective journaling project to create space for individual reflection on personal experiences with important civic implications. UMBC student, faculty, staff, and alumni journal bearers respond to prompts from the Center by creating entries in their journals, and sometimes submitting photos of their entries to be shared publicly. This sharing can take the form of social media posts like this, art projects, or conversations at journal bearer gatherings.

If you’d like to be involved with the journaling project, send us an email: civiclife@umbc.edu.
