Jr. Teen Queen Rebecca Jurchak Honored at the Pennsylvania State Capitol

PA Miss Amazing Jr. Teen Queen, Rebecca Jurchak, recently had the honor of visiting the Pennsylvania State Capitol in Harrisburg, where she was recognized for her outstanding service and leadership. This special occasion marked Rebecca’s first time in Harrisburg and provided an unforgettable opportunity to meet state representatives, tour the historic Capitol building, and receive official recognition on the House floor before all members of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.

The experience was arranged by State Representative Brenda Pugh and her wonderful team, who, along with the Governor’s Office, extended recognition to celebrate Rebecca’s achievements and advocacy. Rebecca was joined by her mom Brenda Jurchak, aunt Linda Spencer, State Director Taylor Boyle, Assistant State Director Brianna McCloskey, and State Committee Member Alexis Elk.

Beyond her involvement with Miss Amazing, Rebecca is active in her school and community. She is a member of the Wyoming Area Marching Band color guard, participates in chorus, and is an athlete with Masters Athletic Elite All-Star Cheerleading, performing on Team HeatWave. She also works at Coffee Inclusive, a community initiative promoting employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities, where she displays her customer service skills and confidence in the workplace while supporting inclusion and empowerment.

PA Miss Amazing is proud to continue advocating for girls and women with disabilities, empowering them to shine in their communities and achieve their goals. We are also looking to connect with state representatives who are passionate about disability rights and inclusion across Pennsylvania.
