Community Hero Awards Postponed
We regret to inform our members that the 2017 Community Hero Awards will be postponed at this time due to a low number of nominations and limited capacity of the outgoing NSRAP Board. We sincerely hope that the incoming board will consider re-open nominations and hosting a Community Hero Awards event in the near future.
