DON'T MISS THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECOGNIZE A SPECIAL INDIVIDUAL(S) OR
ORGANIZATION(S)
AT THIS YEAR'S ORA CONFERENCE
"ENHANCING YOUR TOOLBOX FOR SUCCESS"
OCTOBER 21 - 23, 2009

HYATT REGENCY HOTEL, COLUMBUS, OHIO

We all need to know we are valued.  One "way to go" or "great job" can make
someone's
day!  It is not just a nice thing to do, when we recognize someone or an
organization
each year at the ORA Annual Training Conference.  It is an effective way to
communicate
our appreciation for the efforts and successes of those who serve or work in
the
 field of rehabilitation.  Each year we are moved, sometimes to tears, by the
presentations
given recognizing someone who has overcome incredible odds, who has provided
compassionate
and professional service, or whose company has reached out and given those with

disabilities the tools to be self-sufficient.  Such recognition is motivating
and
energizing.  It reinforces what each of our members do on a daily basis as
being
 meaningful work.  Therefore, please take a moment to review the ways in which
we
recognize individuals or organizations listed below, then complete the Awards
Nomination
