  Help Us Find Our 2020  
  Award Recipients  


For more than a decade, we have celebrated the compassionate, bold, and brave abortion providers who live among us and work to make their patients’ lives better. These honors have been bestowed in memory of two of our late board members, Dr. William K. Rashbaum and Dr. George Tiller.

We need your help finding our 2020 award recipients. Please nominate physicians who you believe have the qualities these doctors embodied in their lives and work

As an organization dedicated to equity and justice, we aim to recognize physicians of color for their vital contributions to this field. We also value nominees who practice in areas most affected by anti-abortion policies and who represent diversity in experience.



  About the Awards  
 

The William K. Rashbaum, MD, Award is a lifetime achievement award honoring a physician who has provided abortion care and served as a mentor for their colleagues, residents, and medical students. Awardees are recognized as leaders in the reproductive health care community. Learn more about the award qualifications and how to submit a nomination
 
The George Tiller, MD, Award honors a physician who, although in the early stages of their career, has taken significant and courageous action to protect and expand access to abortion in their state or nationally. Awardees are current abortion providers, and have overcome opposition to remain public advocates for reproductive health. Learn more about the award qualifications and how to submit a nomination

The deadline for all nominations is
Friday, November 22, 2019. 

 


On behalf of the Abortion Provider Awards Nominations Committee, I thank you in advance for your participation and support. 

Our long tradition of recognizing abortion providers would not be possible without input from our community of dedicated physicians and supporters like you.
