Honorees

We believe that people respond to the needs of others out of a sense of satisfaction obtained from helping to better those people’s lives. Many do not require recognition, but prefer to remain anonymous. Most people, however, appreciate it when their efforts are acknowledged.

The NARC&DC is aware of the many great efforts that our member councils and individuals give to help improve the quality of life for residents in their RC&D area. As a result, an awards program has been established to recognize sustained efforts over the course of the year.  In addition, a Hall of Fame has been established to recognize those individuals who have sustained the efforts over the long-term and made a significant contribution on the national level. Association awards include:

Outstanding Council
Outstanding Council Member
Outstanding Sponsoring Organization
Outstanding Youth
Outstanding Program Assistant
Chuck McCarty Coordinator of the Year
RC&D Hall of Fame

 Nominations for the various awards are solicited in November of each year and must submitted to the regional Associations which will select one nominee for each category to be considered for national recognition as the “best of the best.” Hall of Fame nominees need not go through the region.

Periodically, the President of the Association give out awards for outstanding contributions by individuals or foundations to recognize their contribution to the RC&D Program.
