Awards
The APTA Virginia has several awards to issue annually. All award applications are due to the chapter office by February 1 of each year.
IMPORTANT:
At the June 2018 Board meeting, the Board closely looked at the financial landscape of the association. In doing so, they felt it prudent to put a 3-year freeze on all monetary based awards and scholarships. The Board recognizes the member benefit the awards and scholarships offer and are balancing this with their fiduciary responsibility that the members have entrusted them with. In June 2021, the Board reviewed the moratorium and decided to keep the freeze in place for the Beb Cash Award and the Vision Award, but removed the moratorium on student scholarships. So for the time being, the APTA Virginia is accepting nominations for the Emerging Leader, M. Scott Sullivan, PTA, and John "Jack" L. Echtenrach Research awards. As well as, the student scholarships for Minority, Fall Summit, and CSM. If you have any questions, please send them to vpta@vpta.org.
