Do you want to change your community for the better?
Is it hard to find a group of friends who also care about politics?
Want to get politically involved, but don’t know where to start?

This program is for you!

You’ll develop leadership skills in a supportive, nonpartisan setting.
You'll learn from high-level political mentors and women in Congress.
You’ll also make lifelong friends in a campaign simulation.

The diverse community of politically ambitious women in the High School Program

helped me see myself as a candidate.

It makes me optimistic about our country’s future.

86% of alums said the program gave them the confidence to believe that they would be qualified to run for office in the future!

Every interaction was met with overwhelming support.

It was these connections that made the High School Program

a once-in-a-lifetime experience and helped me

feel belonging among a group of amazing people.
