Civil Air Patrol builds strong citizens for the future by providing leadership
training, technical education, scholarships and career education to young men
and women, ages 12 to 20.
Civil Air Patrol offers more than $200,000 in college scholarships each year,
and about 10 percent of each year’s freshman class at the U.S. Air Force Academy
is comprised of former CAP cadets.
Thousands of young people have their first orientation flights through the
cadet program, and hundreds have soloed in gliders and powered aircraft. Tens
of thousands have attended CAP encampments throughout the nation. At a national
encampment, CAP cadets gather from throughout the nation. They may learn techniques
for search and rescue and disaster relief. They may sample possible career choices
by studying with a university engineering or technology department. They may
learn teamwork and leadership through competitions in problem-solving and physical
endurance.
Cadets can enjoy overseas travel through the International Air Cadet Exchange,
and CAP families can welcome foreign exchange students into their homes here
in the states.
For non-CAP members, the CAP School Program fills the gap between elementary
school DARE and high school ROTC. CAP members, including cadets, volunteer their
time in public schools, teaching respect, manners and personal accountability
in a drug-free environment.
