Otherwise, consider starting a new Award program in your community or enrolling your child in our virtual program! Read on for more information.

Why bring the Award to your community?

Right now, more than a million 14-24 year olds around the world are stepping outside their comfort zones and learning to lead. They are supporting their communities, getting active, gaining new skills, and discovering adventure—all through the Award. The program helps young people develop the crucial skills they need to navigate change and build positive habits, now and in the future, all while gaining an internationally recognized accreditation.

The Award partners with schools, universities, and other youth-serving organizations to deliver the program locally. If there is a potential Award partner in your community, please complete the form below and we will reach out to learn more about their work and the opportunity to collaborate.

Virtual Award Program for Independent Participants

Whenever possible, we will connect young people to a local Award program to begin their Award. When there is no local program available, we enroll young people in our virtual Open Award Center. Through the Open Award Center, independent participants across the country can access the Award program. They are able to register and receive guidance and mentorship from a trained and vetted Award Leader remotely.
