Since 1985, as part of Public Service Recognition Week, communities and public service organizations across the country have hosted award ceremonies to honor those who serve our nation as federal, state, and local government employees. Agencies that have participated in the SAPA Awards Program have consistently told us what a wonderful opportunity this is to recognize those whose public service stands out among peers.
