Louisiana
House Members
will join with
State Senators
and other legislators from
around the
country in this civic education program sponsored by the National
Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL).
State
Legislators across the country visit schools and classrooms to promote
representative democracy. The goal of the program is to educate young
citizens about what it is like to be a state legislator and
what the
Legislature does, get these young constituents' thoughts and
perspectives, and inspire their active involvement in the democratic
process. It is also designed to build personal links between schools and
legislators and provide Legislators an opportunity to observe what is
going on in schools. |
