disABILITY Impact Awards
Please join us for a virtual, livestream disABILITY Impact Awards celebration on Thursday, June 17th, 2021 from 5:30PM – 7:00PM.
We can all probably agree that 2020 was an especially difficult year for many people due to COVID-19 Pandemic. Throughout 2020, COVID-19 presented unique challenges to the daily lives of people with disabilities, and continues to do so even now. However, oftentimes it’s under such circumstances that everyday heroes emerge, regardless of their (dis)abilities. In lieu of a gala this year, dLCV would like to take the time to honor individuals and organizations throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia who throughout the pandemic, have made an impact on the lives of people with disabilities in their communities.
Know of an individual or an organization who has done an amazing job continuing to serve people with disabilities, in spite of COVID-19 restrictions? We are accepting nominations for individuals or organizations who have found ways to innovate, adapt, and grow in their work of providing services, resources, and supports for people with disabilities in their community. Nominations will be accepted until Friday, April 16th, 2021. We will select a winner for each region in the Commonwealth to recognize on June 17th. For eligibility criteria, and to complete a nomination form, please see below.
