Maryland's former Lieutenant Governor, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, commissioned this volume as a curricular supplement to community service. Discussions of these texts encourage thoughtful reflection on volunteer service activities.
“A program of community service gives students
the opportunity to use their talents, energy and
intelligence to help others. Unreflective action is
insufficient to create a citizenry able and willing
to make wise choices. for that, reading and
thinking are necessary. The following readings
have been selected because they raise enduring
human concerns. With these readings students
are provided a tool with which to understand and
speak about the issues that they confront.”
