The purpose of the Phillips Awards is to stimulate interest in and encourage the employment of people with disabilities by recognizing individuals with disabilities who have achieved vocational and financial independence. The Phillips Awards are made possible by a grant from the Jay and Rose Phillips Family Foundation.
This award has been presented annually to people with disabilities who have achieved outstanding success in their vocations. Winners receive a $2,000 cash award and a special plaque, made possible by a grant from the Jay and Rose Phillips Family Foundation of Minneapolis.
The Phillips Caregiver Award acknowledges and honors a caregiver’s contribution that is vital to the independence and quality of life of a person with a disability. The Phillips Caregiver Award is administered by Courage Center, with funding made possible by the Jay and Rose Phillips Family Foundation.
