Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Sea Cadets gives young men and women skills, knowledge, and confidence to become productive, responsible American citizens with an appreciation for the maritime services: Marine Corps, Merchant Marine, Coast Guard, and Navy. Middle school and high school aged cadets train in a disciplined environment where they learn values of honor, respect, commitment, and service.

Activities or mission (Part I)

See Part III, Line 1.

  • To develop maritime appreciation and knowledge, employment skills, civic responsibility, and leadership skills, Sea Cadets provides a variety of hands-on learning experiences in a highly structured environment. The discipline cadets learn prepares them for both advanced education and employment.We train 5,600+ youth annually at 326 units in 46 states, Guam and Puerto Rico. Our diverse program includes seamanship, sailing, aviation, navigation, law enforcement, security, building robots, medical, STEM, SCUBA, submarines, photography, culinary, special forces training, and an International Exchange Program. Our cadets train on Navy and Coast Guard bases, wear uniforms, adhere to fitness and grooming standards, and are held to the highest standards of behavior. Our military culture stresses concepts of duty, service and self-sacrifice, which are the foundation of good leadership. At young ages, our cadets are given leadership opportunities by staffing summer training events, planning unit drill sessions, and teaching others.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

  • 3 · Approval by the board or compensation committee
