Recipients of the 2011 awards were recently honored at an awards ceremony held at its corporate office in Randolph, Mass.

May Institute’s Board of Trustees created the Trustees’ Fund Award – the highest honor given to an employee by the organization – in 1993 to recognize the exceptional contributions of staff members who epitomize the organization’s ideals of service and professionalism.

"Paula’s extraordinary compassion for those in her care clearly mirrors the spirit of this award,” said Walter P. Christian, Ph.D., ABBP, ABPP, President of May Institute. “I am both humbled and grateful for the opportunity to honor such a dedicated and selfless professional.”
