Know an individual in the College or the preventive medicine community who deserves special recognition for his/her hard work and dedication to preventive medicine? Nominate him/her for an ACPM award! Each ACPM award honors an individual for contributions, dedication and service to the College and preventive medicine. The Awards Committee is currently accepting nominations for the following awards: 

The Distinguished Service Award recognizes a Fellow or Member of ACPM for outstanding service to ACPM.

The Special Recognition Award honors outstanding achievement in or contribution to the field of preventive medicine.  Recipients do not need to be working directly in the field of preventive medicine, but should be recognized as important contributors to the field.

Recipients must show a commitment to preventive medicine and the potential to make a substantial impact and significant contributions to the field of preventive medicine and its organizations. 

The Don Gemson Resident Award honors a resident member of ACPM, in any year of training, for outstanding achievement in community service, scholarship, research, teaching and overall leadership.  Evidence of a strong potential for future contributions to the field of preventive medicine is required.
