The information below was for the 2022 competition. This page will be updated when we have more current information for 2023.
Established by the United States House of Representatives in 2014, the Congressional App Challenge (CAC) encourages students to create and submit their own app for the opportunity to receive national recognition. This year, Congresswoman Trahan is excited to welcome students from the Third Congressional District to participate in the 2022 Congressional App Challenge.
To be eligible to participate in the Congressional App Challenge, you must be a middle or high school student at the time of app submission.
Students may register as individuals or as teams of up to four. No more than four students are allowed to form a team.
Students may compete in the district they reside in or the district they attend school in.
If competing as a team, at least half of the teammates must be eligible to compete in the district in which they are participating.
The final deadline to submit is 12:00 PM ET on Monday, November 1st, 2022. (If competing as a team, all members of the team must include their information on the registration form to participate.)
Students may submit apps they created prior to the Challenge, as long as their apps meet the standards of eligibility, and were created within one year of the submission deadline (e.g. anytime after Nov. 1, 2021).
Winners are invited to #HouseofCode Capitol Hill Reception in Washington D.C. and will be honored by Congresswoman Trahan. Winning apps are eligible to be displayed in the US Capitol Building and featured on the House of Representatives’ website, House.gov .
