Mass Girls State
ALA Girls State/Girls Nation programs is to provide a nonparti-
san participatory program that teaches eligible high school
females responsible citizenship grounded in ethics, the princi-
ples of our nation’s founders and respect for God and Country.
High school girls, who have completed their Junior year,
spend an intensive week of study, working together as
self-governing citizens at Auxiliary-sponsored Girls State
programs in every state. In most cases, expenses associated
with attending this program are paid by a sponsoring Ameri-
can Legion Post, a local business or another communi-
ty-based organization.
Participants learn how to participate in the functioning of
their state’s government in preparation for their future roles as
responsible adult citizens.
