Who We Are
Miss America’s Outstanding Teen, Inc.
has been
organized to encourage positive achievement by helping to nurture and
build the scholastic achievement, creative accomplishment, healthy
living and community involvement of our nation’s youth.
Among its initiatives, the Miss America’s Outstanding Teen will host a
national competition intended to encourage and reward the talent,
communication skills, community service, and academic achievement of
girls between 13 and 17 years of age.
The Miss America’s Outstanding Teen will also establish community-based
initiatives and mentoring programs aimed at helping our nation’s youth
build character and gain the skills necessary for success in the real
world. In partnership with committed adult volunteers, community and
business leaders, as well as participants from the national competition,
the Organization will implement programs aimed at helping young people
develop strong values, leadership skills, social conscience, self worth
and conviction about their own potential.
