Eko Awards

EKO’s Tribute Awards recognize outstanding contributions to inclusion and accessibility, exemplary leaders, distinctive partnerships, novel initiatives, dedicated years of volunteer and professional service, and rising stars in Ontario’s child development sector.

A uniquely Ontario award, the Tribute Awards are EKO’s oldest and most prestigious recognition, presented to those who change the game for kids with disabilities and developmental needs and their families.

Through the EKO Tribute Awards, we encourage those in Ontario, in Canada, and around the world to celebrate the contributions of leaders, innovators, advocates, dedicated professionals and volunteers, and emerging leaders whose records reflect ongoing exceptional contributions to the child development sector and a growing sphere of impact.

Check out the Category Explorer for award descriptions and look at the profiles of past recipients as inspiration to develop your nomination for the 2025 Tribute Awards.
