Constituton Project, Inc.

The Mission: Constitution Project, Inc., a Florida non-profit, was founded by Joseph Cofield, for the purpose of putting a copy of the U.S. Constitution and Declaration of Independence in the hands of every 5th grade student in Florida. That is a huge task, as there are over 200,000 5th graders in 67 different Florida counties, but progress ​ is being made thanks to Joseph's extraordinary efforts!

The How: Joseph began his mission in April 2014 and since then, many amazing things have happened. To gather support for his mission, in April of 2015 he began his 27 - 67 Journey Across Florida - visiting each of the 67 Florida counties, riding his bike 21 miles and running 6 in each county (one mile for each of the 27 Amendments). That is over 1,800 difficult miles meeting with state and county officials, school personnel and service organizations.

My journey across Florida ended and my teaching of the Constitution now starts...

October 20, 2015

Many of you asks what motivates Joseph to travel across the huge State of Florida doing 27 miles in each of the 67 Counties!

Those of you who have been following my blogs and webpage you have a little idea. Now the entire State of Florida and every educator will know.

My teaching of the Constitution starts full force now because I have sown the seed and time for me to continue my work.

Today, I start with a YouTube that I am sure everyone can identify. The importance of the 10th Amendment:


 


 
 
Please pass the word that those who do not visit my blog page or webpage will be missing out because I am starting to do what I was call to do in life and that is to teach.
 
My greatest joy after leaving the military completing a wonderful twenty one year (21) career was being part of the Troops to Teachers program and start teaching in the Public Education School System. I have now found my niche in the Educational World and that is teaching, promoting, and living the Constitution.
 
If you want to learn more about the Constitution, you can follow my blog, my website, and my continuing study of the Constitution; because you are going to be in for a treat as I teach the Constitution toward my build up for Liberty Day in March 2016.
 
 
Please feel free to leave comments so that I will know how to improve as I go forward in my teaching of the Constitution!
