Joseph E. Johnson Leadership Award
Established: 2003
In honor of: The late Dr. Joseph E. Johnson III, former ACP Governor, Regent, Treasurer, Interim Executive Vice President, and Senior Vice President for Membership.
The award recognizes an Associate member of the College who has demonstrated qualities that exemplify the College’s mission “to enhance the quality and effectiveness of health care by fostering excellence and professionalism in the practice of medicine.” For each year considered, nominees must be Associates as of June 30th of that year.
