The National Governors Association Governors’ Spouses’ Program was formally established in 1985. Spouses meet during NGA’s annual meetings and at other NGA forums and events.(Download a draft agenda for the 2020 Winter Meeting here.)The program provides governors’ spouses with opportunities to learn about the latest research, trends and activities in their areas of interest and to share experiences and advice with colleagues about their unique role and responsibilities.
