Join us to celebrate Cultivating Inclusion in Lewis County!
This May, we will gather in-person and online to recognize people who share our Cultivating Inclusion – Lewis County vision by creating a welcoming, inclusive community for all. You can nominate a community member who made a direct impact on greater Lewis County for an Inclusion Award!
Suggestions for whom to nominate include a person with a difference / disability or disability ally, staff members, teachers, business leaders or employee, or member of the public or community at-large. This person should have a direct impact on greater Lewis County or a significant connection to the greater Lewis County area through their acts or service.
Honored recipients will be nominees who are most closely aligned with Cultivation Inclusion’s mission, vision and diversity statement, whose dedicated efforts contribute to an inclusive community.
Nominations for 2024 open on March 1!
Nominees should embody the mission of Cultivating Inclusion Lewis County which is to create an accepting community for people with intellectual, behavioral, and physical disabilities or differences.
