STATE GOVERNMENT
During our 2022 Legislative Program, we will be using a revised curriculum especially catered for high school youth. Girls will have the option of meeting on either Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday evening from 7-8pm. Our Program will run from late January to mid-March. COVID-19 permitting, we hope to bring participants to the Capitol during the Legislative Session so that they can experience the Legislature themselves!
