INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2022 Senate Page Program, which will teach young people about working in government and give them the opportunity to meet their state senator.

Students in grades 6 through 12 can apply for the one-day program, which will include touring the statehouse, listening in on debates, and helping staff with age-appropriate tasks. Pages from Hancock County would meet with its representative in the Senate, Mike Crider, R-Greenfield.

“The Senate Page Program is a unique look into state government, allowing students from all around Indiana to not only learn state history, but also experience first-hand the state legislative process,” Crider said.

The Senate Page Program will begin in January and run through early March. Positions fill quickly, so it is important to apply early. Pages are scheduled for Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session.
