Summer Student Leadership Program - Keystone Girls State (KGS)
Keystone Girls State is a non-partisan government and civics program designed to teach the importance of responsible citizenship and to empower young women to make a change in their community. Students who are rising seniors in high school will spend the week intensively working together to self-govern the state of "Keystone," meant to model current Pennsylvania's local, county, and state government. Citizens will have the opportunity to campaign and run for office, draft and present legislation in the KGS House of Representatives and Senate, and to be actively involved in the Judiciary System as modeled by the state of Pennsylvania.
At the end of the week, two KGS citizens will be nominated to attend Girls Nation.
GirlsNation "senators" will convene in Washington D.C. to campaign and run for "national" offices, draft and pass legislation in "Congress," and could possibly meet their State Representatives, Senators, and the President of the United States.
