About the provider
In the first eleven years of the Challenge, the CAC inspired over 80,000 students across all 50 states to code for Congress. The Congressional App Challenge’s mission is to inspire, include, and innovate efforts around STEM, coding, and computer science education. The challenge is district-specific, and U.S. Representatives publicly recognize winning teams. Each winning app may be put on display in the U.S. Capitol Building for one year, and additional prizes may be available.
