The Carroll Award

The Carroll Awards recognize blind and visually impaired employees who have made significant contributions to their companies by their outstanding ability and job performance. They are respected by management and colleagues and demonstrate the potential contribution to the work force that can be made by the worker who happens to be blind or visually impaired.

Each year, a small select group of individuals from throughout the Commonwealth of Massachusetts are admitted into the Carroll Society, based on achievement and merit as valued employees. One previous member of the Carroll Society will be selected as the “Blind Employee of the Year” and will be presented the Thomas J. Carroll Award for Employment.

If you know of a blind or visually impaired person who demonstrates the highest degree of excellence as an employees or is successfully self-employed, we invite you to nominate him/her to be recognized through the Carroll Awards. All nominations must be confirmed and approved by the candidate’s employer and others who know their work. Employees of The Carroll Center for the Blind or the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind are not eligible for nomination. Please use the following guidelines when considering a nomination.
