Ten exceptional individuals and organizations are receiving awards for their outstanding commitment and leadership in family violence prevention.
“Family violence is a societal issue which demands a societal response. This year's award recipients demonstrate the power of individuals and communities to make a difference in their communities. Their efforts are helping build a safer and healthier Alberta.”
- This year’s recipients work in the communities of Athabasca, Calgary, Carstairs, Drayton Valley, Drumheller, Edmonton, Peace River and Stettler.
- The awards are presented in four categories: adults, seniors, groups/organizations, and government – and one individual will receive a lifetime achievement award.
The Inspiration Awards increase public awareness and builds connections across Alberta between those who are working to end family violence.
