Extractions: The State Bar's Law-related Education Committee promotes law-related and citizenship education of our youth and our community through interactive educational experiences that create a citizenry that understands its democratic rights and responsibilities. Since 1992, the State Bar of Wisconsin's LRE Committee has been fulfilling this goal with the help of hundreds of volunteer lawyers like you. Contact Dee Runaas , LRE coordinator, with questions or visit our Web site at LegalExplorer.com LRE programs and curriculum give people an understanding and appreciation of the law, the legal system, and their rights and responsibilities as citizens through the use of practical and experiential learning. LRE helps youth become effective, law-abiding citizens by promoting civic responsibility and community participation. It increases young people's self-esteem and promotes a more favorable attitude toward authority figures. Community resource persons who work within the legal system are an important part of the LRE team.
