SDCN’s Amy Lazarus receives USA "Characters Unite" award
Wow – this is too cool! Congratulations to Amy Lazarus, executive director of the Sustained Dialogue Campus Network (an NCDD organizational member) for being named one of 8 of the USA Network’s 2010 Characters Unite award recipients. Amy receives a grant of $5,000 for SDCN. This year’s award winners were chosen from online nominations open to public.
Chris Wagner of SDCN told me they’re “excited to represent the dialogue and deliberation community,” and that “they recognized our work/this ‘field’ as fighting prejudice and discrimination, and increasing tolerance, respect and acceptance.” Learn more about the award at www.charactersunite.com/awards, and see how Amy is recognized here.
