Youth Inspire! Award

Got the scoop on a positive youth? Tell us, we want to know!

Every day, many Sacramento County youth make positive contributions to our community. Please take this opportunity to nominate the special young people you know for the Award. The Award honors Sacramento County youth who are making a difference for themselves or others at home, school or in the community. All nominators will remain anonymous—unless they choose to reveal their identity.

This award is different. It’s not a competition for the "best of the best." All youth who meet the eligibility requirements will be selected. Anyone, of any age, can nominate Sacramento County youth, including other youth, parents, neighbors, program leaders, and educators.

• Submit your nomination online (nominations accepted through 2/15/08); or
• Download the nomination form for printing.
