Child ‘Future Delegates’ Invited to Info Session

WOODBRIDGE, Va. — Delegate Richard Anderson said this one is for the children.

The Prince William County Republican Delegate will host an information session for his upcoming “Future Delegate Program” at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Prince William County Government Center’s McCoart Building.

The program will take place during the upcoming legislative session in January and February.

——

If selected, students will spend an entire day with Del. Anderson and his staff at the Virginia State Capitol. During that time, the student will accompany the delegate to all sub-committee and committee meetings, press events, and the daily floor session of the Virginia House of Delegates. They will also have an opportunity to meet senior officials of the executive and legislative branches of Virginia state government.

The Virginia House of Delegates, which is the lower house of the General Assembly, meets for 45 days at the Virginia State Capitol in Richmond. The 2013 legislative session runs from January 9th through February 23rd. All students who apply for the 2013 Future Delegate Program will be able to participate on a date that is convenient to the student’s family. The day will provide each student with a first-hand look at the legislative process in Richmond. All students are encouraged to apply and participate, regardless of party affiliation or viewpoint on matters of public policy.

During the orientation session on November 14th, Del. Anderson will brief applicants and their parents, distribute application forms, and answer questions. Additionally, Anderson will brief parents on the House of Delegates Page Program in 2014 so that interested students may apply in 2013 for that two-month-long program that will take place at the Virginia State Capitol from January through March of 2014.

To discuss the 2013 Future Delegate Program before the orientation, parents and students may contact Del. Anderson at [email protected] or 703-730-1380.
