Will you be the next Trevett Award winner?

Each year, the Young Professionals section of PRSA-LA honors outstanding of Young Professionals from the greater Los Angeles area in memory of Tom Trevett, co-founder of the Los Angeles Chapter’s Young Professionals Section – the first in the nation. Tom was one of many who succumbed to the AIDS epidemic at the age of 29. It was his hope that the awareness about the cause of his death contributes to our understanding of the impact of AIDS on society.

In his honor, two outstanding young professionals will be recognized at the Prisms Awards, thereby gaining exposure in front of industry professionals. First-place winner wins $1000 and second place winner wins $500.

If you are employed in public relations, have no more than three years of full-time experience and are in good standing with PRSA-LA, then you are eligible to apply for the Trevett Award.
