The Congressional Award provides opportunities for young people to unleash their potential by achieving personal goals focused on volunteerism, character development, and fitness. The Congressional Award is the United States Congress’ award for young Americans. It is non-partisan, voluntary, and non-competitive. Earning The Award is a fun and interesting way to get more involved in something you already enjoy or something you’d like to try for the first time.

Three different levels of certificates and medals can be earned, Bronze, Silver, and Gold, all four program areas – voluntary public service, personal development, physical fitness, and expedition / exploration are required. Students need an advisor, so contact your teachers and/or counselors to request their help with this program. If they are not available, contact Gloria Halfacre at veniceptsa@gmail.com for assistance.
