Achievement Award Honorees

Each year, Overcoming Obstacles presents Achievement Awards to outstanding business leaders, educators and students who exemplify the spirit of the Overcoming Obstacles program.

Adults who have attained excellence in their careers while also giving back to their communities are presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award.

Educators who bring the Overcoming Obstacles program to life in their schools and classrooms and students who demonstrate exemplary communication, decision making, and goal setting skills, and successfully overcome challenges in their lives by using skills learned in the Overcoming Obstacles curriculum are awarded Achievement Awards.
