    Created in 1991, the Pinnacle Award is the highest achievement SHRM state councils and chapters can attain, and it honors programs that exceed the standard activities of SHRM affiliates in enhancing the creation of effective HR management. The Apple Valley Human Resources Association was one of 12 human resource organizations from across the country to win the award.

    Winning programs selected from 67 applications received a $1,000 prize, sponsored by ADP Inc. The award was received by Reagan Bellamy on behalf of the AVHRA board.

    “Winners of this award are SHRM affiliates that have shown leadership in the HR profession through innovative and forward-thinking programs,” said Henry G. (Hank) Jackson, president and CEO of SHRM. “Their efforts are a testament to our members, HR professionals, and their commitment to aligning people and business strategies. This year’s winners offer solutions to timely and real-life challenges facing workplaces today, including the skills gap and helping military veterans return to the civilian workforce.”
