BLOG : NYC Personal Assistant Awards a Wonderful Success

The Concepts 2017 NYC Personal Assistant Awards Luncheon took place in Brooklyn last month, and was a resounding success. Each year, Concepts honors a group of Personal Assistants who were nominated by their Consumer as PA of the Year. A special committee of Consumers, Board and staff get together and review each essay nomination, and choose the 15 awardees. This is a very special group of individuals who work with compassion, strength and resilience to help their Consumer live a more independent life of freedom. This is a job of critical importance to the lives of so many people. It is with great excitement that we honored the following Personal Assistants for their extraordinary work this year:
