Thank you for stepping up to help the Convention of States Project. Many of you chose this role because of time limitations upon your desire to participate but there are many ways you can help out on short notice or with just an hour or two a month. Please take advantage of the links on this page to learn and grow as active and self-governing members of the American experiment in government 'of the people, by the people, for the people.'

In order to represent the Convention of States effectively, we ask that you take the public courses available to you on COS University and learn as much as possible about our government and the Convention of States Project.

The following links are divided between the ones which are applicable to all Passed States and the ones which are specific to Missouri.

Please note that many of these resources are also applicable to states still working towards their resolutions.

**Passed States Activities & Resources** This page and the linked pages applies to assigned-role volunteers but some of the information is available to share with the public.
