Call for nominations
Association Life Membership and Honor Roll It is once again time to nominate outstanding individuals for Association Life Membership or placement on the Honor Roll, the two highest awards for service that CSEA can bestow upon deserving persons.
Approved by a vote of the CSEA annual conference delegates, Life Membership and Honor Roll placement are awarded to CSEA activists in recognition of extraordinary service to CSEA. Life membership is awarded only to current or former members. Honor Roll membership is sometimes extended to nonmembers.
For nomination forms and information, contact the Member Benefits call center at (866) 487-2732, or download the application at www.csea.com/lifehonor.
2020 Honor Roll Recipients At the 93rd Annual Conference held virtually in July 2020, delegates approved postponing last year’s nominees to this year. This was done in the hopes that there will be the opportunity to celebrate the honorees in front of all attendees at the next live in-person annual conference, giving them the proper fanfare they deserve.
