At the Center for Civic Values, we encourage public engagement with the law by providing accessible education and services, ensuring support for all students regardless of income, sexual orientation, background, location, or any other individual circumstances
Since 1978, CCV has been the administrator and host of the Gene Franchini High School Mock Trial program. In 2022 CCV added a Middle School Mock Trial program.

Our offices are in Albuquerque, New Mexico; we have program activities throughout the state; and, our educational materials are used in classrooms and mock trial programs across the country.
100% of CCV’s board members have donated money to the organization.
