Awards

NACOLE has revised its procedures for bestowing awards that recognize contributions to and accomplishments in the field of civilian oversight. In 2011 we are initiating a clearly defined and transparent process relying on nominations from the NACOLE membership for two categories of awards:

• The NACOLE Flame Award, recognizing significant, long-term contributions to the field of police oversight by an individual, an organization, or an agency.
• The NACOLE Achievement in Oversight / Contribution to Oversight Award, recognizing a specific significant accomplishment or contribution to civilian oversight by an individual, an organization, or an agency.

Nominations can be made by any NACOLE member and will be evaluated by an awards sub-committee of the NACOLE Professional Standards Committee.

The nomination form (which must be submitted electronically) will allow statements from one to three individuals supporting the nomination and can include relevant supporting documents. In completing the nomination documentation, consider the criteria that have been identified and will be used in evaluating the nominee’s qualifications for the award.

June 10, 2011 was the deadline to submit nominations for 2011 award recipients.
