ALA Colorado Girls State is a week-long program designed for young women who have completed their junior year of high school, and the staff consists of a diverse group of women who are passionate about patriotism and female empowerment. During the week, delegates run for mock public office, write, debate, and pass bills, engage in a mock trial exercise, and attend panels consisting of guests from every level of Colorado government and beyond. Delegates are taught about the governmental process and learn the ethics of being a responsible, civically involved citizen and leader. It is an experience filled with excitement and pride. All 50 states conduct Boys and Girls State programs annually, and a national program (Boys and Girls Nation) is held in Washington DC each summer where attendees replicate the program on a federal level, as well as have the opportunity to meet with their respective state congressmen and the President of the United States!

Student Ambassador
Student Ambassador
Safe2Tell, is excited to announce the new student ambassador program! They are looking for 10-12 high school students from across the state, with diverse backgrounds, that have a passion and want to be more involved with making our schools and communities safer. The focus this year is to break the code of silence, and with the help of these student ambassador's, we want to encourage more students to reach out with concerns, whether that’s to a trusted adult in their life or through Safe2Tell. This student-led group, with guidance from Safe2Tell staff, will meet about every 6 weeks as a large group, and one hour in smaller groups every other week, throughout the school year to complete two big projects:1) A project that the Safe2Tell office has tasked them with2) A project that they come up with to support student safety in their school or across Colorado Below is a direct link to the Ambassador application. Please contact S2Tambassador@coag.gov or call 720-508-6800 with any questions, or if you need the application in Spanish.
