FEA Human & Civil Rights Awards

The FEA Human and Civil Rights Committee is interested in learning about the leaders in your community who have made a difference! This committee is requesting your nomination of individuals or groups whom you feel should be considered as recipients of the annual FEA Human & Civil Rights Awards.

Each year four awards are given out:

• The Human & Civil Rights Award is presented to a person who has demonstrated support and promotion of diversity and social justice.


• The Mary McLeod Bethune Human Relations in Education Award recognizes outstanding leadership in the promotion of human and civil rights.


• The Martin Luther King, Jr. Award honors the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. As seen in the qualification’s listings, the purpose of this award is to recognize achievement in the areas of self-determination and civil rights.


• FEA Service Award is presented to a FEA member, or a local affiliate, who has advanced the cause of human and civil rights.

Please consider submitting an application for one or more of these awards. The winners will be honored during the Delegate Assembly in October.
