advocates.

 

Outstanding Individual Leadership Award - This award is given to an
individual who has demonstrated outstanding leadership in Oregon's
tobacco control movement.  Nominees have made significant and well
recognized contribution in the areas of leadership, building alliances
and using innovative techniques to advance tobacco control. Individuals
and organizations with less than five years of experience may be
considered for this award.

 

Outstanding Organization, Business, Coalition or Program - This award
recognizes organizations that have implemented creative, innovative
solutions to Oregon's tobacco challenges. This nominee should have
demonstrated long-term commitment by addressing barriers, policy
concerns, eliminating disparities, and involving the youth of Oregon.

 

Maurine Neuberger Award for Distinguished Career Achievement - Maurine
Neuberger was a pioneer in the Oregon tobacco control movement long
before it was underway.  Maureen pushed for stronger controls on
cigarette advertising and co-authored the 1963 book "Smoke Screen:
Tobacco and Public Welfare".  In 1964 she sponsored and successfully
fought for federal legislation requiring cigarette warning labels. This
nominee will be recognized for their long-term leadership and for making
significant contributions for at least five years.  Nominees who have
shown continuous dedication, support and loyalty to the Oregon tobacco
control movement will be considered.
