In commemoration of the the Association's sesquicentennial, the Board of Directors selected from among nominations from its members to recognize the merit, impact, and contribution of 150 members to Association and the field.
Only individual
members of the AAIDD at the time of their nomination were eligible.
Members who had lapsed or passed away at the time of their
nomination were not eligible for consideration.
This special recognition has no impact on eligibility for AAIDD’s annual award program.
