NSPRA’s Publication and Digital Media Awards recognize outstanding tactical materials such as publications, newsletters, videos, podcasts, websites, social media and more. Entries are judged within their category for organizations of similar type and size. Each entry is judged on its overall excellence and its quality relative to other entries in the category. The award is featured on the NSPRA website (https://www.nspra.org/Awards/Award-Winners/Publications-and-Digital-Media-Excellence-Winners-2026 ) and will be celebrated at the National NSPRA Seminar in July.
