SUMMARY:The Great Task Youth Leadership Program
DESCRIPTION:History can do more than instruct; it can also inspire. The “Great Task” Youth Leadership Program is for student\, school\, or youth groups in grade levels 7 to 12\, looking for intensive leadership and character-building experiences. The “Great Task” Youth Leadership Program is based upon the ideals set forth in President Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address\, “It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion…”\nWhile in Gettysburg\, participants learn about the actions\, decisions\, leadership and other traits demonstrated by ordinary individuals confronted with the extraordinary challenges during the battle. Participating students will then work to apply lessons of leadership and good character to identified community service projects in their own home communities.\nApply now for on-site experiences in fall 2021.\nThis award winning program is a joint partnership between Gettysburg National Military Park and the American Battlefield Trust with financial support by the Bowe Stewart Foundation.

SUMMARY:Women of the Senate

To date\, 58 women have served in the Senate. \nLong before that milestone\, however\, women had already left their mark on Senate history. In fact\, women have always been a part of the Senate’s story\, influencing its members and guiding its actions as petitioners\, activists\, correspondents\, spouses\, witnesses\, lobbyists\, speakers\, and most importantly\, as staff and then as senators.

SUMMARY:Voting & States Rights—Rights for All?
DESCRIPTION:It’s important to understand the role of states in extending—and limiting—the right to vote. We might think that voting as a right for everyone was part of our founding values—but history tells us differently. Protecting your right to vote begins at your state legislature.

SUMMARY:The Great Task Youth Leadership Program
DESCRIPTION:The “Great Task” Youth Leadership Program is for students\, schools\, or youth groups in grade levels 7 to 12\, looking for intensive leadership and character-building experiences. The “Great Task” Youth Leadership Program is based upon the ideals set forth in President Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address\, “It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion…”\nWhile in Gettysburg\, participants learn about the actions and decisions demonstrated by ordinary individuals confronted with extraordinary challenges during the battle. Using this knowledge\, they will apply lessons of leadership and good character to identify community service projects in their own home communities. \nClick “Explore” to apply and learn more.
