NSNA Awards
Welcome to the NSNA Awards & Honors Program website!
NSNA constituent associations offer numerous opportunities for involvement in leadership activities and programs. One of the many benefits of active participation in NSNA is the opportunity to be recognized through the NSNA Awards and Honors Program, which celebrates the achievements of individual members, school chapters, and state associations.*
Visit each individual award webpage for more details on judging criteria, prizes, and how to apply. Certain awards do not require an application.
Deadlines are indicated on each awards page and applications must be received by 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the deadline date listed for each award, unless otherwise specified.
Please follow instructions for award applications carefully. Incomplete online applications will not be considered. Please note that all applications become the property of NSNA. Only one award application per category is permitted for each project. Please do not submit the same project for multiple categories, as it will be disqualified from the awards program.
