ACOG Today, the official newsletter of The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), recently received the highest award for association newsletters in a national competition.
ACOG Today received a Gold Award in the Excel Awards' "Newsletters-General Excellence" category. The newsletter was also recognized for the second year in a row with a Silver Award in the "Newsletter-Newswriting" category.
The Excel Awards are sponsored by the Society of National Association Publications and is the only journalism and design awards program exclusively for association publishing. More than 250 organizations entered this year's contest, submitting 1,250 total entries. Only 192 awards were handed out.
The judges lauded the newsletter for its "timely, practical, and well-written content and clean, attractive design," adding that the integration of images and text was impressive. The newsletter won the "general excellence" category in 2006 also.
"It's very exciting and rewarding to be honored by our communication and association peers," said ACOG Today Editor Melanie Padgett Powers. "These awards are energizing and serve as a constant reminder that our goal, above all else, is to strive to provide ACOG members the best newsletter possible."
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists is the national medical organization representing over 52,000 members who provide health care for women.
