The Earl Carl Institute for Legal and Social Policy is now accepting applications for the Marcia Johnson Outstanding Public Service Award (MJOPSA). The Earl Carl Institute’s Annual Marcia Johnson Public Service Award provides a $1,000 award to a TSU student, a community servant, and a local community organization in recognition of outstanding public service. ECI is seeking nominees for each category that demonstrates an outstanding level of commitment, passion, innovation and achievement resulting in substantial contribution to public service that has made a real difference to people’s lives among communities of color and the traditionally disenfranchised.
The MJOPSA was established to recognize and promote broad spectrum public service that places a voice at the decision-making table that advocates for the interest of disenfranchised communities. Potential recipients will have performed and/or supported outstanding public service in support of these communities. The award seeks to recognize those who serve without glory, under the radar, doing the kind of work the Earl Carl Institute aspires to do.
