Is someone in your office going above and beyond the call of duty? Did one of your employees do something marvelous that has been completely forgotten in today’s all-politics-all-the-time news cycle? If so, we have an association award for which you might consider nominating them.
Suzanne McDaniel Award
The person selected for this award should exemplify the qualities that were so evident in Suzanne (our first Victim Services Director): advocacy, empathy, and a constant recognition of the rights of crime victims. The criteria for nomination are:
- The person must be employed by a county attorney, district attorney, or criminal district attorney’s office;
- At least a portion of the person’s job duties must involve working directly with victims; and
- The person must have demonstrated impeccable service to TDCAA, victim services, and the profession of prosecution.
To nominate someone, please send to Jalayne Robinson via email (Jalayne.Robinson@tdcaa.com) the nominee’s name, office of employment, phone number, and a description no longer than 100 words of why you believe the person deserves this award. The nomination must be received by Tuesday, June 30, 2026. Should you choose to nominate someone, please keep in mind that the person does not have to work in your office or even in your TDCAA region if they meet the criteria above. Anyone in a prosecutor’s office may make a nomination.
