The School of Social Work’s Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion established the Award for Impact in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in Fall 2018 to recognize individuals or groups in the School of Social Work who have made significant contributions to advancing diversity, equity & inclusion in the School or in the community.
The call for nominations are announced each Winter semester and may be awarded to up to four individuals or groups.
Calls for nominations are sent out through the SSW listserv in the Winter semester and will include nomination deadlines.
Some of the qualities and experiences we look for in award nominees:
Nominations are reviewed by a committee of students, faculty, and staff who review all nominations and make recommendations to the School of Social Work’s Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
The awardees are recognized during an awards ceremony and also featured on the School's website.
