Purpose of the NERSC Excellence in Service Award:
The annual NERSC Excellence in Service Award recognizes Resident Service Coordinators, housing management companies, and others working in the field of housing services throughout New England for outstanding achievement and extraordinary performance in the practice and advancement of service coordination in housing.
This year's conference theme is "Walking on Sunshine: Promoting Positivity in Our Communities and Residents." These past few years has been a challenge in many ways. Many individuals have gone above and beyond to help brighten the lives of residents through their positive efforts. Do you know an individual or group that has been a shining star at their properties? If so, nominate them today!
The Awards Process:
All nominations will need to be submitted by end of day February 15, 2022. The NERSC Board of Directors will review the candidates and decide on the award winner. The nominating party of the winner will be notified by March 5th so they can decide whether they would like the award to be a surprise to the winner and ensure that the attendee has the opportunity to register for the conference. The award will be presented on Thursday, May 5, 2022 at the conference.
Members of the NERSC, Inc. Board of Directors are not eligible for consideration for the Excellence in Service Award. Prior Excellence in Service Award recipients are not eligible for consideration.
