Girls in Politics Initiative
The Girls in Politics Initiative (“GIP”) is an international civic education program created and administered by the Political Institute for Women. Our GIP programs introduce girls ages 8 to 17 to politics, policy, the work of the United States Congress, parliamentary governments and the work of the United Nations. We host GIP programs in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the United Kingdom. Educational, social and political organizations may also book a private and/or customized GIP program. To request a private or customized event, email here.

Meet With An Naval Academy Student (CSA opportunity)
Calling all CSA leaders: See below for an opportunity to have your girls meet and talk with a Naval Academy student.

I wanted to reach out on behalf of my school, I am currently a sophomore at the United States Naval Academy. I graduated from North Penn High School in 2015, and I will be majoring in English as well as minoring in Spanish here. I am also a member of the varsity cross country/ track team at the Academy. Upon graduation, I am hoping to service select Marine Ground and transfer into an intelligence or logistics branch.
I have been selected to participate in an admissions program to visit local area schools before Thanksgiving break. I was hoping to plan a visit with Troop #565 or any other troop in the area to talk about the Naval Academy and what it has to offer for any interested girls.
I will be home the 21st - 24th, the three days before Thanksgiving, to visit schools and meet with prospective candidates. But any other time will work depending on when the group meets. The meeting can be super casual and I can fit it into any format that would be convenient for the girls. I am mostly looking to talk with them, explain what I do, and answer any questions they have - academy related or not.
Some of the types of meetings we can host are:
- One on one meetings with interested girls
- Group meeting with the program
- I can speak at an already scheduled event
Please let me know if any of these would be a possibility to set up, or if I should contact someone else about this. I wasn't positive on who exactly who contact about a meeting, so feel free to redirect me if needed.
Very Respectfully,
Alixandra R. Valenti
