On April 2018, we launched our Champion of Service Award to bring recognition for exceptional service in a Warm Hand-Off by connecting an individual and their family with Drug & Alcohol treatment and resources, as well as for service system engagement.

Award recipients are recognized at our annual Leadership in Recovery Dinners. Our 7th annual event will take place on November 20, 2024. We look forward to your participation in our mission to bolster, empower and represent the recovery community!

Champion of Service Award Description: There will be two Champions of Service awards granted, one to an Institution/Organization and a second award to an individual who holds a credential as either a Peer Recovery Specialist or Peer Recovery Family Specialist. Awards are in recognition of the exceptional service each provided in connecting an individual and their family with treatment and resources for Drug & Alcohol Service System Engagement.
