General Information
The DeRose-Hinkhouse Memorial Awards are presented annually to members of the RCC who demonstrate excellence in religion communications and public relations. The awards are named to honor the late Victor DeRose and the late Paul M. Hinkhouse, leading lithographers in New York City and longtime friends of the RCC. Both men shared a strong interest in, and concern for, excellence in communications.

If you are a member of the RCC and played a major role in producing the communication material, you can submit your material for a DeRose-Hinkhouse Memorial Award. Each entry is judged on overall quality, including aspects such as concept, writing, design, creativity, communication value, and effectiveness in achieving its purpose. Entries are compared with the best communication projects of religion communication professionals across the country. A panel of professional religion and secular communicators select the winning entries.
