Margaret Elliott, former executive director of Crisis Control Ministry, has received The Order of the Long Leaf Pine, one of North Carolina's highest honors, awarded by the governor for exemplary service to the state and to local communities.

Elliott led Crisis Control Ministry for 27 years, growing it into one of the region's most trusted providers of short-term emergency assistance. During her tenure the ministry won the Joel A. and Claudette B. Weston Award for Excellence in Nonprofit Management and the Nonprofit Sector Stewardship Award from the North Carolina Center of Nonprofits. She also launched Food Day at the Fair with the Carolina Classic Fair, opened Forsyth County's first client-choice food pantry and expanded services into Stokes County.

She was inducted during the ministry's annual Hope for the Holidays event. "While this award bears my name, it truly belongs to the dedicated staff, volunteers, board members, donors, and community partners," Elliott said. Current executive director Ashley Edwards said Elliott's legacy is marked by compassion and innovation.
