Students Invited to Serve as a Senate Page

0

The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2023 Senate Page Program.

Through the full-day program, students in grades six through 12 tour Indiana’s Statehouse, listen to debates and help staff with age-appropriate tasks. Students also have the opportunity to meet their state senator.

The Senate Page Program will begin in January and run through early April. Positions fill quickly, so it is important to apply early.

Pages are scheduled for Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session. They begin their day at 8:30 a.m. and are dismissed at 3:30 p.m. Groups serve together on Wednesdays.

Serving as a page is considered an excused absence from school.

I always look forward to welcoming local students to the Senate, and I hope to meet many more new and returning Senate pages this year.

Every child deserves a loving home to grow up in, but unfortunately, not every child is fortunate enough to have one.

The Indiana Adoption Program is a statewide initiative to find committed caring, stable and permanent families for waiting children in foster care. Nearly all of the children in the program are over the age of eight and have come from difficult or traumatic situations.

The program connects prospective parents with any of Indiana’s waiting children and helps begin the process of adoption. To learn more about the Indiana Adoption Program and the children in need of a loving home, click here.

All children in Indiana deserve permanent homes, but foster homes and parents are also critical for young Hoosiers who need temporary or emergency placements. If you are interested in fostering a child or becoming a foster parent, click here.
