Constituent Organization Award

AAPA’s Outreach and Advocacy Award celebrates Constituent Organizations (COs) each year for their outstanding programs, projects, and initiatives. All COs are eligible to submit an entry including state chapters, federal service chapters, specialty organizations, caucuses, and special interest groups.

What is your CO accomplishing this year? Could it be award-worthy? Whether your organization has led efforts in Partnering with Purpose, Advancing the Core, Building a Movement, or promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, we want to hear about it!

  • Application window for the 2026 award nominations will open by late October
  • Be sure to review the program rules before applying
