About the Congressional Award

The Congressional Award Foundation is a public-private partnership created by Congress to promote and recognize service, initiative and achievement in America's youth.

Participants follow guidelines established in the Congressional Award Act, Public Law 96-114. Members of the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate recognize their constituents who earn the Congressional Award Bronze and Silver Medals at local, citywide or statewide ceremonies or presentations. Gold Medals are presented at an annual ceremony in June in Washington, D.C. The National Office serves as a liaison between the medalists and congressional offices.

The students who received the award are listed below:
