  • Governor’s Page Program

    This is an incredible opportunity for students across the state to travel to Raleigh and not just learn about but participate in state government through a hands-on experience.

    The experience spans over four days and is open to NC high school juniors, seniors, and recent graduates. For in-person page programs, students will receive a $200 stipend to help compensate for any costs associated with the program.

    The page program also offers special weeks dedicated to under-represented groups in state government, such as the Black Student Leaders Governor’s Page Week and the Latinx Governor’s Page Week. These weeks are for students who identify as Black or African-American and Latinx or Hispanic, respectively, and exist as an attempt to further diversity and equity in our state government.

    To learn more about the Governor’s Page Program and apply, please visit https://governor.nc.gov/governors-page-program.

    For questions about the program or application, please contact Erinn Foote at erinn.foote@nc.gov.
