Young Members Advancement Award

The Young Members Advancement Award recognizes an individual or group that has made a significant contribution toward integrating young members into the American Nuclear Society. It is given for activities that increase membership or participation of young members, create leadership or experience opportunities, provide training or mentoring, raise funding, or otherwise promote young member involvement at a national level. Special consideration is given to actions with wide-reaching impact or public example. The award is presented at the ANS Winter Conference.
