Salutes to Excellence

As stated on the ACS Nationals website:

“Salutes to Excellence is a recognition award that gives ACS local sections, technical divisions, regional meetings, and national committees an opportunity to underscore outstanding accomplishments, achievements or service for individuals who have made a positive impact on everyday life.

Since the program began in 2000, more than 500 honorees have received Salutes to Excellence awards.
