Do you know a high school student who wants to make a difference on climate change? Registration is now open for VEEP's Youth Climate Leaders Academy.
Youth Climate Leaders Academy is designed to support VT and NH high school youth in planning and implementing projects to make a difference on climate change. The projects are the students', but our program and partners provide resources and professional consultation as they figure out where to start, how to plan, who to connect with, how to grow professional skills, identify leverage points, measure impact & more. Parts of our events and planning are also youth-led as we work to help support and empower young people, and let them collaborate with and inspire each other.
Our Kick-Off Retreat is December 6-7, 2024 in Fairlee, VT, so mark your calendars and sign up now! The Kick-Off is for teams looking to dive into the implementation phase of their action project. There will be skills workshops, team planning time, consultation time with V/NHEEP staff and other experts, and a supportive community of passionate and like-minded folks. Please contact mariah.keagy@veep.org with any questions.

The 2024 Congressional App Challenge is here! If you are a Vermont teenager who likes to solve big problems – or if you know one – this app design competition might just be for you. The submission deadline is October 24th.
The Congressional App Challenge is a contest where middle and high school students create their own app, regardless of their coding experience. In 2022, 35% of participants were beginners. You’ll learn skills, showcase your ideas, and access resources and opportunities. |
|
This year, we are excited to partner with Vermont’s own Hack Club to support Vermont students! Hack Club will offer grants to receive free hardware/software to help you build your project. They will also host three virtual meetings with past App Challenge winners -- a place for you to learn more about the Challenge, and meet and collaborate with other applicants. You can learn more at their website.
The Congressional App Challenge is open to all middle and high school students in Vermont. Students entering the competition must submit their app to CongressionalAppChallenge.us by October 24th, 2024.
The Vermont winner, chosen by a panel of expert judges, will be featured on CongressionalAppChallenge.us. One winning app from each state will also be eligible to be on display in the U.S. Capitol, honoring the winners from across the country. Winning students are also invited to a House of Code Capitol Hill Reception in Washington D.C. Check out last year’s winner, Clay, who came to DC!
