About this document
Understanding Civil Society and Its Role by Christy Framedia is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Civil society refers to organizations that operate outside of government and business to serve the public interest. It includes non-profit organizations, labor unions, churches, and other service groups. Civil society plays an important role in society by providing services with little expected in return. In disasters, civil society organizations like the Red Cross and Habitat for Humanity provide aid. Smaller civic groups also contribute through community projects and fundraising.
