“MISS USA® and MISS TEEN USA® celebrate the power, beauty, and ambition of today’s women,” the organization’s website states. “More than a competition, these iconic brands provide a national stage for leadership, style, and purpose — where confidence meets opportunity.”
Since its founding in 1952, Miss USA has stood as one of America’s most iconic pageant organizations, with the winner going on to represent the United States at Miss Universe. The organization will celebrate its 75th anniversary in 2026.
Established in 1983, Miss Teen USA continues to inspire a new generation by awarding its national winner academic scholarships, modeling contracts, brand partnerships, and leadership opportunities.
Both competitions uphold a shared mission: to empower young women to dream boldly, achieve fearlessly, and embrace their individuality, both on and off the stage.
