EMSC Awards Programs
EMSC National Heroes Awards Program
In 1998, the Health Resources and Services Administration’s Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) established the Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) National Heroes Awards to recognize and reward outstanding achievement in EMSC and to encourage continued excellence in the field. The award categories include:
- EMSC Project Coordinator/Manager of Distinction
- EMSC Provider Leadership
- EMSC Family Volunteer of the Year
- EMSC Advisory Committee Member
- Outstanding EMSC Research Project
- State EMSC Policy Leader of Distinction
- EMSC Lifetime Achievement
The 2010 National Heroes Awards were presented during the Annual EMSC Program Meeting in Bethesda, MD.
Upcoming Awards
Beginning in 2010, the EMSC National Heroes Awards Program will be held once every four years. The next program will be held in 2014.

The EMSC Recognition Awards
In 2012, MCHB began something new, the EMSC Recognition Awards. The purpose of this program is to call some well-deserved attention to individuals within EMSC who, in the previous year, went above and beyond to provide advice, inspiration, and leadership in grant-related matters. Those that are recognized will be added to the pool of candidates for the 2014 National Heroes Award ceremony, which will be held once every four years. The EMSC Recognition Awards will be held annually and recognize individuals for the exceptional work accomplished within the year as oppose to deeds accomplished over a four year period or more.
