The VFW's citizenship education program arms teachers with school activities and resources designed to teach America's youth about patriotism and service and about the contributions of our nation's veterans in preserving peace. The VFW's Citizenship Education for School and Youth Groups Curriculum Guide has lesson plans on patriotism, the meaning of patriotic holidays such as Veterans Day and Memorial Day and U.S. flag history and customs. The VFW also works closely with the Library of Congress and local VFW Posts in encouraging participation in the library's Veterans' Oral History program in which veterans visit school classrooms and talk about their military experiences and educate young Americans on citizenship and patriotism.
