Dakota County is seeking nominations for the annual Public Health Achievement Awards. The awards recognize Dakota County residents who devote their time, energy and talents to improve health in their community. They will be honored before the Dakota County Board of Commissioners on May 6.
Community health leaders are recognized in three categories — Youth, Individual and Community Group (coalition, partnership or organization). Winners are selected based on their leadership, contribution to solutions to public health problems, collaboration, advocacy, role modeling, evidence of impact and demonstration of equity, diversity and inclusion.
Nominations must be submitted by Friday, April 18. For a nomination form and more information, visit www.dakotacounty.us and search achievement awards or call 651-554-6100.
