Kid Governor® is an award-winning civic education program led by the Office of the Vermont Secretary of State and created by The Connecticut Democracy Center.
The Office of the Vermont Secretary of State delivers essential services to protect the public, provide reliable information, support businesses, individuals, and government, strengthen democracy, preserve our history, and build community. Our vision is that people trust in a transparent and accountable government that provides services, protection, and resources for success in communities and engagement in participatory democracy. The office has four core functions: Elections, Business Services, The Office of Professional Regulation, and Vermont State Archives and Records Administration, as well as two special programs: Civics and Safe at Home.
The Office of the Vermont Secretary of State partners with The Connecticut Democracy Center (CTDC), creator of the Kid Governor program. CTDC inspires people of all ages to engage in civic life and strengthen their communities, and envisions a society where everyone is empowered to participate in our democracy.
