What is TeenPact? TeenPact is a comprehensive leadership program for both teens and children at the state

policy in their state. During the week, students meet important officials, interact with other like-minded students,
and have more fun at the capitol than they could have imagined.
Students leave inspired and challenged with an intense desire to change America for Christ. TeenPact staff will
grade and return pre-class homework the week of classes. Students receive a certificate for 1/3 Carnegie Unit in
State Politics and Government. If you know any homeschool, enrichment, church, or other group that would be
willing to give our Student Ambassadors 5 minutes to promote TeenPact, we would appreciate any contacts. If
