The Everett Page Award for Volunteer of the Year 2023 Lillian Cravotta-Crouch is the 2023 recipient of the Everett Page Volunteer of the Year Award. When the board found out that Lillian Cravotta-Crouch had never received the Everett Page Volunteer of the Year Award, they were surprised, because of the number of years of service to our organization that she has put in with so much vigor, strength, and hope. She has been president on two occasions, as well as vice president twice. She is a board member, fundraising and activities chair, a member of the Share Care committee, captain of the NAMIWalk DBSA Boston team, Family & Friends facilitator, and many other things she has done through her 17 years with us. We thank her for everything she has done and continues to do for DBSA Boston, but also for helping to fight stigma against mental illness in her everyday life.
