about ccv . . .

At the Center for Civic Values, we envision a society in which all people understand, value and participate in the processes of self-government. We promote our  vision through the Interest on Lawyer Trust Accounts (IOLTA) and High School Mock Trial programs. Our most recent Biennial Report describes these programs in detail.

CCV was founded originally in 1962 as the New Mexico Bar Foundation and is organized as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable and educational corporation. Our offices are in Albuquerque, New Mexico; we have program activities throughout the state;  and, our educational materials have been used in classrooms and mock trial programs across the country.

CCV participates in GuideStar©, the online standard for nonprofit accountability; you may review our listing by clicking on the GuideStar© link.
