Local Government 101

Henrico County helped 86 boy and girl scouts in spring 2016 get their Citizenship in the Community merit badge and patch. Local Government 101 is designed to give scouts and students the credit they need for class or badge, but also teach our youth the valuable role local government plays in their daily lives.

Each session includes an interactive, informative presentation, educational activities, and an opportunity to engage with county officials. Local Government 101 occurs one hour prior to the Board of Supervisors regular meeting, so participants have the opportunity to attend a public meeting in the same night.

Registration is free and required. To register, please go to henrico.us/services/local-government-101/
