All applicants must submit an original and five copies (a total of six copies) of the entry form to the address at the bottom of this page.
In addition to the entry form, applicants should submit five copies of any supporting documentation, such as photographs, videotapes, written materials (e.g., an evaluation of the outcomes of the program, project, initiative, etc.; product literature; development plans; press releases; copies of the state, local, or tribal policy), an electronic copy of the application and write-up in Word or PDF format, and any other information that may assist program judges in making award decisions.
Please submit each entry under only one award category. Note that you may submit any number of different projects as separate entries. Applicants also may choose to combine multiple projects into one entry if all of the projects fall under the same category.
Please note that the number of awards given in any one year will depend on the applications received. In a single year, some award categories may have multiple award winners, while other categories may have no winners. If your entry does not win an award in a given year, you may choose to reapply with the same or different project in future years. If your entry does win an award, you may reapply with different projects in future years. However, please note that the same applicant will not be given an award more than two times in three years.
