2024 was a year of change and growth for the Southern California CID world and for the CAI Greater Los Angeles Chapter. So many of our members have exemplified innovation and service for this industry, their communities, and our chapter and deserve to be recognized for their achievements.

Tip for Nominations:

If you want your nominee to have a real chance of winning, be as descriptive as possible about why they should win the award. A couple sentences isn’t going to cut it.

How the Winners are Chosen:

The Awards Nominations Committee is composed of three Chapter Board Members and one of the Co-Chairs of the Social Engagement Committee, which plans the Awards Gala. Chapter Staff anonymize the nominations submissions by redacting names and pronouns before submitting them to the Awards Nominations Committee. Judging is blind and anonymous.
