NNSP - Close Up Foundation

Impacting Students and Teachers Nationwide

Partners since 2020, Close Up’s work with the National Network of Schools in Partnership (NNSP) brings together two organizations with a shared commitment to civics and community engagement. Since piloting our first partnership program, Close Up and NNSP have worked together to reach students and teachers nationwide through a variety of Impact programming. Looking ahead, Close Up and NNSP will continue to collaborate closely on developing and delivering student programs, curriculum, and professional development for educators, honoring the missions of both organizations.
