Details

We encourage you to "toot your own horn" and nominate those who you work with, whom you believe deserving of this statewide recognition.

If you have nominated an individual or a program in a prior year, and that individual or program did not receive an award, please consider doing so again. Each year many worthy nominations are made but only one award per category can be distributed. It seems a shame that some very worthy nominees are only nominated once. The nomination committee strongly encourages re-submissions. Persistence can yield dividends.
