Re: 2016 CoA Annual Awards
Date: June 8, 2016
It gives us great pleasure to invite and encourage you to nominate candidates for three CoA Awards that will be presented on Saturday, October 29, 2016, during the Council’s Reception at the APHA’s 2016 Annual Meeting and Expo in Denver, CO. The rules are few and they are simple. Nominees should be exceptionally skillful and dedicated … all APHA affiliate members are eligible. A CoA Nominations Form and supplemental materials must be completed and submitted by July 30, 2016.
The three awards are:

 


  • The CoA Award for Excellence is given to an individual for work in his or her APHA Affiliate that is regarded as exceptionally meritorious and successful. Often, individual awardees exhibit significant leadership, innovative initiatives, and effectiveness and efficiency in her or his efforts within (or for) his or her Affiliate or Region.

  • The CoA Outstanding Affiliate of the Year Award is given to an APHA Affiliate that provides a model for other affiliates for work or project(s) of high value in the field of public health. The Outstanding Affiliate should illustrate one or more exceptional activities in promoting public health in its state.

  • The CoA Outstanding Student of the Year Award designed to recognize significant involvement of an undergraduate or graduate student in state, regional and/or national public health affiliate/association.

For each nomination, the following is requested:




  • A completed CoA Nominations Form (see attached)

  • A concise narrative describing why the “Individual” nominee (for the Award for Excellence and Outstanding Student Award) or the “Affiliate” nominee (for the Outstanding Affiliate of the Year Award) is deserving of the designated award.

  • A bulleted list highlighting the nominee’s accomplishments and/or contributions.

  • Copies of any materials which are illustrative or supportive of the nomination. Please limit such materials to a total of 10 pages. Website linkages may also be provided as material to support the nomination.

  • While not “required,” no more than two (2) letters of support for each nominee addressing issues such as leadership, innovation, and excellence are encouraged. Such letters may be included with the nomination materials. Only one electronic submission per nomination will be accepted.

All of the above should be electronically transmitted to:


Matt Makara, Program Manager, Affiliate Affairs

Email: matt.makara@apha.org


ALL NOMINATIONS, SUPPORTING MATERIALS AND LETTERS MUST BE ELECTRONICALLY SUBMITTED NO LATER THAN JULY 30, 2016.
For additional information on the CoA Awards, contact Matt Makara at (202) 777-2428 or e-mail at matt.makara@apha.org.
