Certificates of Merit

Each affiliate in good standing is invited to designate one of its members and/or a team to receive a Certificate of Merit, thereby nationally recognizing one of their own for outstanding contributions to the environmental health profession.

This opportunity for special recognition in front of a national audience is one of the benefits of affiliation with our association. Recipients are announced during the AEC awards program and in the Journal of Environmental Health.

The nomination deadline is May 31, 2024.

Individual Award

Each affiliate in good standing is invited to designate one of its members to receive a Certificate of Merit. Each Affiliate may nominate a single individual provided that the individual and Affiliate President are each active NEHA members.

Team Award

The purpose of the team award is to recognize multiple individuals who worked together on a project or program that made a significant contribution to Environmental Health programs within the state of the Affiliate. Only a single certificate will be printed, with the names of the team members. Each Affiliate may nominate a group provided the group and the Affiliate President are each active NEHA members.
