The Brick Township Chamber of Commerce has named Ocean County Prosecutor Joseph D. Coronato its Distinguished Community Leader Award recipient for 2014, along with Joel Markel of Preferred Home Health Care & Nursing Services.<\/p>\n

The awards are given each year to local citizens who make \u201coutstanding community contributions\u201d to the local area, the Chamber said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Coronato has been recognized nationally since taking office in Ocean County for his aggressive efforts to combat the county\u2019s heroin epidemic, including introducing the lifesaving practice of administering Narcan to overdose victims and charging drug dealers in the deaths of their customers. He has also organized a large-scale outreach campaign which has included numerous public forums and anti-drug programs in local schools.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Caregiver Volunteers of Central New Jersey and Michael Blandina of Brick will be recognized with the Distinguished Community Partners Award and Douglas Blyth will be honored as the 2014 Chamber Champion.<\/p>\n

All of the awards will be presented at the Chamber\u2019s gala event Dec. 11 at the Eagle Ridge Country Club in Lakewood. The 2015 leadership team for the Chamber will also be installed that night.<\/p>\n
