America's greatest resource is its youth. CAP is committed to assisting youth to be the best they can possibly be: in the classroom, through physical fitness, and through community service and leadership. Our cadets need motivated role models and leaders to guide them. Learn more about working with cadets.

Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) are the keystones to our country's technological success. Paramount to igniting the curiosity of future generations are resources, ideas and role models who make these subjects "come alive" for children. CAP provides world-class STEM lesson plans, hands-on activities, and rewards for our nation's teachers to use to stimulate their students. But CAP needs motivated adult members to help bring the message to the classroom and assist our own cadets in learning about the wonders of the aerospace world.  Learn more about working with Aerospace Education.
