Naval Sea Cadet Corps MISSION
"...through organization and
cooperation with the Department of the Navy, to encourage and aid American youth
to develop, train them in seagoing skills, and to teach them patriotism,
courage, self-reliance and kindred virtues." -
NSCC Charter - 36 USC 1541
Since 1958 the Naval Sea
Cadet Corps has been committed to providing American youth with a drug and
alcohol free environment to foster their leadership abilities, broaden their
horizons through hands-on training and guide them to becoming mature young
adults.
Sea Cadet organizations exist
in most of the maritime nations of the world. Recognizing the value of these
organizations in educating youth in maritime matters, the Department of the Navy
requested the Navy League of the United States to establish a similar program
for American youth. The Navy League agreed to do so and formally established the
Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) and Navy League Cadet Corps (NLCC) in 1958.
Recognizing the importance and benefits of the NSCC, Congress on September 10,
1962 federally incorporated the Naval Sea Cadet Corps under Public Law 87-655
(36 USC 1541).
Today, the NSCC has formed
partnerships with organizations such as the Foundation for Teaching Economics
and the Flying Midshipman Association to offer cadets broader opportunities in
areas of leadership and aviation. The NSCC also took an active part in the
creation of the International Sea Cadet Association (ISCA). The ISCA is an
association of Sea Cadet Corps' from around the world, whose main objective is
to facilitate exchanges of cadets between member countries.
