Citizen Film is a nonprofit production company that uses a cycle of collaborative documentary storytelling and story-sharing to engage communities in dialogue about important problems and inspire active participation in solutions. American Creed’s public engagement plan brings Citizen Film's nationally acclaimed methodology (supported by funders ranging from ArtPlace America to the NEA) to scale. Citizen Film's collaborations with independent filmmakers, grassroots organizations, and civic institutions have been featured at America’s most prestigious venues (the Sundance Film Festival, MoMA-NY, LACMA, the Hirshhorn, the Whitney, and more) and presented on television (PBS, HBO, IFC, TLC, Arte, etc.).

Facing History and Ourselves empowers teachers and students to examine complex moments in human history and recognize and stand up to racism, prejudice, and intolerance. Facing History hosts a series of Community Conversations and previously conducted a Student Essay Contest focused on American Creed’s central themes, in order to teach young people that national history and civic participation are inextricably connected.

KQED EDUCATION  provides a free media literacy teaching and learning hub for educators and students, including professional development courses, classroom resources and unique tools that help students compose and share media, and develop the skills required for effective civil discourse. KQED Education is the lead partner on the American Creed Youth Media Challenge.

The National Writing Project (NWP) is the nation’s largest educator network dedicated to writing and teaching of writing, and a core American Creed education partner. For more than half a century, NWP has engaged America’s educators in teaching civic writing (including digital media production today) and dialogue skills. NWP designs curricular prompts and project-based learning activities around American Creed documentary shorts.

PBS has provided unique, trusted programming to American viewers since 1969. PBS treats its audience as citizens, not simply consumers, and invites everyone to explore new ideas and broaden personal horizons -- with content that expands the minds of children, programs that ensure that music, theater, dance and art remain available to all Americans, documentaries that open up new worlds, and non-commercialized news programs that provide citizens with multiple perspectives on world events and cultures.

Working Assumptions engages students in taking photographs and writing captions that explore challenges and solutions at the intersections of work, family, care, community and societal structures. Working Assumptions provided photography training to key participants in the American Creed project including Ryan Chae, Trinity Colón, Jonathan Blair, Jace Charger and Sam Schimmel.
