The nomination process for the 2015 Annual Awards is officially open, and submissions are requested for individual, team, and/or organizational Award consideration. Since 1991, OPRA has annually recognized individuals and teams from Provider Members that have demonstrated outstanding service and achievement in the DD field, and whose work has significantly impacted the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities; in 2014, the Association introduced organizational awards serving the same purpose. OPRA calls attention to “the best of the best” at the Annual Awards Luncheon, held this year on November 4, the second day of the 2015 Fall Conference. Award winners are selected from a large pool of nominees submitted by Provider Members from every corner of Ohio, and the Awards Committee encourages all Provider Members to review the 2015 Awards’ descriptions, and to consider nominees. If you’re ready to nominate, head here for more information, and to submit your details! Nominations are due by Thursday, September 17. Interested in knowing who’s won in the past? Ready to submit a nomination?

Congratulations to all winners from previous years – and best wishes to this year’s nominees!

More 2015 Fall Conference details will be distributed as they materialize. As always, we appreciate your support of OPRA’s Events!
