The House Divided Project is a team effort led by professors, students and staff at Dickinson College that is devoted to finding new and creative ways for understanding the story of the coming of the American Civil War.

Since Summer 2006, the House Divided Project has hosted a series of professional development workshops on the Underground Railroad for K-12 educators. Part of the National Endowment for Humanities (NEH) "Landmarks of American History & Culture" program series, these workshops have helped establish the foundation and inspiration for this digital classroom.
