Adult Volunteers - Promoting the Program

The beauty of The Congressional Award Program is that it can easily compliment the many activities that are already taking place in schools and organizations across the country. Therefore, implementing this program does not require any new commitment of additional resources. Young people engaged in activities such as improving musical skills, developing athletic abilities, or volunteering in the community could use these and many other pursuits to earn a Congressional Award.

The National Office is always looking for volunteers to help spread the word about The Congressional Award. If you are interested in promoting the program in your area, please contact us at (202) 226-0130 to request materials and information. The items below have been made available for you to download.
