CIRCLE OF EXCELLENCE AWARD

Beginning in 2023, the Contemporary Relationships Conference seeks to recognize outstanding efforts by individuals and/or organizations who have been extraordinary advocates for mental health and positive relationships within the LGBTQ+ community. Nominees should have demonstrated considerable creativity and innovative efforts in developing programs, services, and conversations that benefit LGBTQ+ people and/or strive to advance equality. The ideal candidate may be a well-known leader, or an unsung champion, that works tirelessly to improve the lives, relationships, and families of LGBTQ+ people.
