Awards

Award nominations are now open!

Anybody can nominate any TCPS or agency for any award. A person can only win a particular award only once every four years.

Nominations are open until Midnight August 31st. Once nominations are closed, a SurveyMonkey ballot will be sent to all TCPS’s for voting.

This is a chance to let your voice be heard. Do you know of someone who goes above and beyond in their job? Who helps people with mental illness no matter what? An agency that “gets” the concept of recovery and works to spread the word?

Here is where you can do it! We are now accepting nominations for these awards. To nominate someone, simply fill out the fields below and submit the form. It’s that easy!
