Thank you for your interest in the ClearMark Spotlight Awards!

This year, we’re shining a light on plain language projects that stand out for their clarity, impact, or importance—whether they come from government, finance, healthcare, or another sector.

If you’ve seen a piece of communication that made a real difference, now’s your chance to help us recognize it.

We can’t wait to review your nominations.

Submitting is easy—just follow these three steps:

  1. Create an account. First you need to have a Submittable account. When you have an account, you’ll be able to start your submission now and finish later if you need to — just don't forget to submit. If you need help setting up your account, email support@submittable.com.
  2. Once you create an account, complete the online submission form. Get preapproval from your public relations or legal departments, if necessary.
  3. Pay a processing and handling fee. You can pay this fee with a credit card. If you don't have a card and need an invoice, email us and we'll help.
