On June 25, 2009, the NYCHA Branch of the NAACP presented New York Grand Opera Artistic Director and Founder, Vincent La Selva with a plaque in recognition of his "exemplary leadership and dedication". The plaque was presented by Branch President Lynn Spivey. This latest honor follows last year's Civic Spirit Award which was presented to Maestro La Selva by the Women's City Club of New York in recognition of his commitment to addressing the needs of the New York community.
