The goals of the original members included education, mediation, cooperation with other organizations, and development of specific programs to bring about a more unified and just city. The Institute affirmed its religious faith and in communal responsibility, drawing its membership from a broad cross-section of business, religious and community interests. Incorporated as a non-profit organization in February, 1980, RUI employed two Urban Missioners and an Administrative Assistant. Funding for these positions and Institute activities came from an extended foundation grant and fund-raising among local churches and businesses. St. Paul's Episcopal Church was instrumental in providing leadership, funds, and office space for the new organization.","An elected Council and Moderator determine RUI policy, but activities originate in standing committees. Historically, the two committees given greatest attention concern disinvestment and racism/racial polarization. Both committees publish reports and organize workshops to involve citizens and government officials in correcting imbalances in Richmond society and economy. More recently, new committees have been formed to address unemployment, transportation, housing, women and poverty, and grassroots development. Significant programs undertaken include a series of Black-Jewish dialogues, a workshop on the impact of the 1981 federal budget, summer camp programs for city children, and a Summer Youth Employment Program.","The organization was dissolved in 1990.","Accession Number: 87-NOV-54; 89-Feb-9; 89-May-22; 96-Nov-36","The Archives is composed of correspondence, reports, publications and general office files, excluding most financial and fundraising information, from 1971 through 1988; but the bulk of the material dates from 1979 to 1985. Series and files on specific issues often include notes, articles, and publications gathered to inform individuals and committees which addressed these needs. Other publications follow the major series. The following issues of Revitalization News have been transferred to the Richmond Revitalization (M253) file: Vol. 1, Numbers 1-7; Vol. 2, Numbers 1, 4, and 5; Vol. 3, Numbers 1 and 2.

Black, social activist and New York Society for Ethical Culture leader, and Alice K. (Nanny) Pollitzer, prominent civic leader and Ethical Culture Movement member. In response to the rise of fascism abroad and to the country's domestic problems of the day, it was their intention to create \"community learning environments for youth which transcended racial, ethnic, class, religious and national boundaries,\" a vision inspired by their belief that \"young people would grow as citizens and leaders if they lived and worked together in self-made democratic communities.\" From this experience, it was hoped that they would \"develop a deeper knowledge of themselves and a vision of a more humane society.\"","The EFC's primary objective became \"the creation of a responsible, informed and effective citizenship among American youth\" capable of helping to solve society's most complex and intractable problems, and the organization aimed to foster youth leadership and civic involvement within a decidedly multicultural framework. Program participants were encouraged to examine current political, social, and economic issues through a curriculum designed to develop critical thinking and leadership skills. Over the years, the program came to include internship and community service projects, field trips, political activities, and community government participation. In addition, a wide variety of workshops, discussion groups, and lectures were held, in which the following types of subjects would be explored: social and economic justice, health and poverty, criminal justice, international relations, human rights, the environment, labor politics, education reform, racism and sexism, community and economic democracy, and youth empowerment.","Between the Encampment's inception in 1946 and dissolution in 1995, more than 7,000 young people from a diversity of racial, ethnic, religious, economic, and geographic backgrounds participated in EFC annual summer sessions, year-round leadership training programs, and various short-term projects. Some notable EFC alumni include: Gale Brewer, Ada Deer, Joseph O. Prewitt Diaz, Barney Frank, William Haddad, David Harris, Allard Lowenstein, Jean McGuire, Eleanor Holmes Norton, Charles Patterson, David Rothenberg, Hal Sieber, and Floyd \"Red Crow\" Westerman.","For several decades, the EFC enjoyed a national reputation. Prominent Encampment supporters included Eleanor Roosevelt, who served as Chairwoman of the EFC Board of Sponsors from 1946 to 1962, and Martin Luther King, Jr. In the 1950s, the organization was viewed by some with suspicion, including the American Legion, which accused the EFC of being \"un-American\" and \"socialistic.\" Widespread support for the organization continued through the 1970s, but began to wane in the 1980s within the country's conservative political climate. By the early 1990s, the Encampment had lost most of its funding base and programs were suspended in 1997. Efforts by former EFC leaders and alumni to revise the organization led to a summer 2013 pilot program in Richmond, Virginia. Since then, the EFC has offered summer and year-long programs to prepare young people to be \"informed, responsible and effective global citizens working for social justice.\"","Special Collections and Archives began collecting records of the Encampment for Citizenship (EFC) in the spring of 2010, and it is expected that the burgeoning collection will become more comprehensive as the procurement of materials continues. As of December 2010, donations have been made by: Margot Gibney, former EFC National Executive Director; Marion Silverbear [who donated materials that were compiled and collected by Margot Gibney], former EFC Alumni Coordinator and Development Coordinator; Pamela Barefoot, a former EFC staff member; and Nancy Marr, an Encampment alumna. Dr. Edward H. Peeples, Emeritus Associate Professor of Preventive Medicine and Community Health at Virginia Commonwealth University, has been involved in coordinating donation efforts. Dr. Peeples' affiliation with the EFC began when he attended the 1957 Encampment, and he remained actively involved with the organization as a recruiter, site Director, guest speaker, and advisory committee member. There are additional records related to the EFC in the Edward H. Peeples, Jr. Papers, which are also located in Special Collections and Archives.","Materials in the collection include Encampment publications, program and recruitment brochures, student applications, fundraising and sponsorship materials, staff handbooks, student and staff evaluation questionnaires, student and staff workshop materials, photographs and slides. The collection also contains correspondence and memoranda of EFC staff and board members, letters and correspondence of students and alumni, alumni and staff directories, alumni newsletters and reunion materials, yearbooks, and newspaper and magazine articles. The bulk of the materials date primarily from 1946 to 1997, with concentrations in the collection's holdings dating from the late 1970s to the early 1980s, and from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s. Much of the collection's correspondence records are from these periods.","VCU James Branch Cabell Library","Encampment for Citizenship","Encampment for Citizenship -- Archives","Marr, Nancy.","Barefoot, Pamela","Silverbear, Marion.","Gibney, Margo M.","Peeples, Edward H.
