Community Impact Award Nominations 2026

Nominations for the Theo-Roger Community Impact Award are officially opened for 2026.

Dedicated to changemakers in our community, the Theo-Roger Community Impact Award honours the life and legacy of Theo Wouters and Roger Thibault, who for decades have fought prejudice, and discrimination in Canada, Quebec, and the West Island.
