Founded in 1973, the Governor’s Page Program | NC Gov. Cooper provides North Carolina high school students with a unique opportunity for hands-on participation in state government. Hosted by Volunteer NC in Raleigh, pages will grow in four key areas: history, civics, service, and professional development.

Eligible participants are high school students in good academic standing and classified as Junior, Senior, or recent high school graduates. During this week of service, pages engage with influential decision-makers, explore policy proposals, and cultivate skills that open doors and opportunities. Participants also receive excused school absences and a $200 stipend.

Our ultimate goal is to create an applicant pool that is truly representative of the state, and your support in encouraging applicants from your county will play a crucial role in achieving this.

You can find the application here.

Thank you for your interest in the Governor’s Page Program. The 2024 page applications are now open. If you have any questions, please contact Erinn Foote at [email protected].
