Our Awards

While the true measure of success is the lives saved, Truth Initiative is proud to be recognized for creativity, effectiveness, stellar research and innovative campaigns. We've won hundreds of awards over the years, including top marketing honors like Emmys, Effies, Cannes Lions and being named a top campaign of the century by AdAge. We’ve also received awards recognizing research, community and youth activism, and the overall effectiveness of our organization, including distinctions from the Society of Behavioral Medicine and Alliance for Workplace Excellence.
