The William Penn Leadership Program is a unique opportunity for select high school juniors of the 30th Senatorial District, to find out what it would be like to be a Pennsylvania State senator for a day – to do research, debate bills, experience lobbying and vote. It is a chance for students to experience government outside of a textbook.

We have designed the William Penn Leadership Program to be non-partisan and educational. Our hope is that by the end of the day, students have a better understanding of how their state government works and are encouraged to become engaged in Pennsylvania’s political process.
