Lieutenant Governor’s Award for
Excellence in Aging

Nominations are being accepted from individuals, businesses, not-for-profit organizations and communities for the Lieutenant-Governor’s Award for Excellence in Aging. The deadline for application submission has been extended to Friday, April 17, 2026.

This award was established in 2012 by the then-Lieutenant Governor, Hon. Graydon Nicholas, to acknowledge and honour those who recognize the value and contribution of older adults in our communities. The award recognizes New Brunswick citizens, organizations, and communities that have had a unique and positive impact on the way people age in New Brunswick.

New Brunswick has thousands of engaged citizens, professionals, activists, and organizations who work diligently every day to support the aging experience. The passion demonstrated by both individuals and groups has the power to make significant impacts in communities across our province.

The Honourable Louise Imbeault, Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick, will present the 2026 awards on May 13th, 2026, at the New Brunswick Association of Nursing Homes Annual General Meeting and Conference.  The conference will take place at the Delta Hotel in Fredericton.
