THE CONGRESSIONAL AWARD
Diversity AmbassadorsRepresentation Matters.
We understand that our program should look like our nation.
The Congressional Award is an opportunity for ALL young people in our country. That’s why we’ve established a youth volunteer corps that work diligently to bring the program to underrepresented communities.
Comprised of young alumni, our ambassadors work with local leaders and organizations to identify solutions to barriers like ease of access, socioeconomic status, and educational disparities.
