The Timothy R. Stephenson Founder's Award is presented annually to the EAST program that best demonstrates the overall purpose and mission of the EAST Initiative. The award is presented in honor of Tim Stephenson, founder of the EAST Initiative (www.EASTinitiative.org) in Greenbrier, Arkansas in 1996. We believe the Founder's Award presents a great opportunity to showcase your program's abilities and hard work over the last year. The Founder's Award winner will be chosen and subsequent awards (Programs of Excellence) may be given to programs that best exemplify the criteria.
