The order arrived quickly and was just what we needed for our organization and event!

Teresa Griffin

A huge thanks to the NCCS for helping me get the pocket Declaration and Constitution 250 Anniversary into my students hands so rapidly. The box of pocket docs was nicely packaged and materials were distributed easily. Importantly, our in-class discussions were instantaneously transformed and energized. Thank you again.

Our Journey

Organization Founded

In 1971, amidst a growing disconnect from the profound "Freedom Formula" that our forefathers sacrificed for, the National Center for Constitutional Studies (NCCS) was born. Originally known as The Freeman Institute, our purpose was clear: to unearth the foundational principles of societal harmony that birthed and will perpetuate freedom in any society rooted in them. These timeless principles are enshrined within the writings of the Founders and the seminal documents they penned, notably the Declaration of Independence (1776) and the United States Constitution (1787).

Legacy of Classics

Over the decades, NCCS has been dedicated to publishing impactful books like The 5000 Year Leap and The Making of America, alongside various resources, all striving to illuminate the principles fostering freedom and safeguarding human rights. Our most recent book, Behind the Bill of Rights, published in 2022, delves deeply into the core of the first ten amendments of the United States Constitution, revealing the foundational principles of natural law that underlie each policy.

Our Educational Endeavors

Constitutional Seminars: Our commitment to Constitutional seminars continues unabated. These dynamic events, spanning all-day workshops and engaging evening gatherings, provide a deep dive into America's Great Success Formula. Together, we delve into the profound insights of luminaries such as Jefferson, Madison, Adams, Franklin, and Washington—visionaries who unearthed the key principles governing human interaction. Through their ingenuity, they meticulously crafted the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights, establishing transformative policies that endure to this day.

Pocket Constitutions

In recent years, NCCS embarked on a mission to ignite an appreciation for our founding documents among Americans. We initiated a project to distribute these documents in a small pocket-sized booklet measuring 3.25" x 6.5", containing the US Constitution, its amendments including the Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of Independence. Collaborating with individuals, businesses, schools, and government entities, we launched an initiative that has already disseminated over 28 million copies. The resounding positive feedback fuels our enthusiasm as we persist in encouraging every American to engage with the United States Constitution. We invite you to join hands with us in promoting this program and inspiring fellow citizens to explore our founding documents.

Freedom Square USA

In 2026, we partnered with one of the leading experts on the Constitution in the nation, Shane Krauser, to launch an online community dedicated to supporting one another in nurturing the culture of liberty. This platform provides connection, education, and tools for building relationships that bring us together as Americans.
