Special Awards and Scholarship Presentations A Pictorial Presentation
Who does not like to hear, “I appreciate all that you do for me: Thank you”?
NBASLH’s Awards and Scholarships Committee, led by Chair Joy Lennon, while collaborating with the Board of Directors, was meticulous in its choices for this year’s special awards and scholarship recipients. The members always look forward to applauding the various categorical designees: From the prestigious M. Eugene Wiggins Leadership Award, to the William T. Simpkins Service Award, from the Scholar-Mentor Award, to the Clinicians of the Year Awards, the deserving NBASLH members who were chosen are featured below, along with numerous others who were recognized during the Convention Gala Banquet.

Buttercup Therapy Services, PLLC, is proud to announce our one year anniversary, May 24th! Established 2022, it has been a humbling experience to learn and grow in such a culture and time as an entrepreneur. It was NBASLH, as an organization, and NBASLH members who empowered me in the risk and leap of faith in myself to become a solo practitioner and form a PLLC in Texas. I am truly appreciative of the representation, coaching, and support from this Community which allows me to thrive. I feel continuously motivated and encouraged to succeed, even through hardships.
While we celebrate BTS’s public birthday, May 24, 2022, we also honor the tragic day when 19 students and two teachers lost their lives during the shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. While practicing in a school 175 miles away, we remember and continue to support those in the community who were affected. Our hope is that all people, regardless of trauma, ability, or any marginalized factor, receive the support and access to care that will allow them to share (or continue to share) their voices with the world. We can’t wait to hear what they have to say!
