Call for Nominations: 2025 Judy Baskins Volunteer Leadership Award

The National PACE Association (NPA) announces a call for nominations for the 2025 Judy Baskins Volunteer Leadership Award. The award was created to recognize volunteer leaders for their significant contributions to NPA. Much of the success of NPA can be attributed to the commitment, passion and inspiration of our volunteer leaders. When Judy Baskins stepped down as chair of the NPA Board of Directors in 2002 after eight years, the NPA Awards Committee decided to present her with the first Volunteer Leadership Award. Subsequently, the award was renamed the Judy Baskins Volunteer Leadership Award in recognition of her exceptional leadership at NPA since its founding in 1994. The NPA Awards Committee invites you to nominate an individual for the 2025 Judy Baskins Volunteer Leadership Award. Each organization may nominate one individual.

Nomination Criteria: Eligible nominees must be members of a PACE organization and meet the following criteria:

• provided outstanding leadership to NPA through participation as a board, committee or task force member or in another leadership capacity;
• demonstrated commitment to furthering the growth of NPA and PACE;
• effected positive change in the association; and
• advocated on behalf of the individuals served by PACE.

Each organization may nominate one individual.

Nomination Deadline: August 8

Please complete the following form by Aug. 8. The award recipient will be honored on Tuesday, Oct. 7, at the Leadership and Awards Luncheon during the 2025 NPA Annual Conference in New York, NY.
