The Paraclete Award was first presented in 2002 by the Sisters of the Holy Spirit to honor a dedicated staff member who not only provided longevity in service but exemplified all 5 core values in a way that is readily present in their work on a consistent basis. This award was the first to be available to leadership and supervisors as all other awards were selected by the leaders and supervisors and therefore were not eligible.
The Paraclete Award is renamed in 2024 to the Al Hanzlick Paraclete Award and in addition to being a great honor to the staff member who receives it, they are now gifted with a monetary award thanks to the family of Al Hanzlick who created an endowment for this purpose and to carry on the legacy of their father. Al Hanzlick was a life member of Jennings board of directors who proudly made connections to others in the community to both impact the reputation and outreach of Jennings but also to create opportunities for individuals, corporations and foundations to offer philanthropic support to the good work at Jennings. Al is most remembered for his gentle counsel, his loyalty and his love for faith, service and family.
We will accept nominations for this year's award beginning in November. Please check back!
