Celebrating Our Activists
NAACP Image Awards® nationally recognizes youth and adult members of NAACP for the work they do to improve their community, educate the masses, identify the problems, and lead the revolution to fix them.
No matter how small or grand the revolution, the values, and commitment of these individuals are essential to elevating the legacy and prominence of the mission of the NAACP, and these activists deserve to be celebrated.
Each generation has a role to play in this work. The nomination period for the 2024 Youth and Adult Activist of the Year starts September 22, 2023, and ends January 26, 2024.
