Public Service Recognition Week

Since May 1985, the first week of May has been celebrated annually as Public Service Recognition Week. It is intended to be a time to honor the men and women who serve our nation as federal, state, county and local government employees.

Time and time again, public employees tackle the most complex problems that face our communities,

answering a call that’s sometimes much greater than themselves. These workers go above and beyond to show what is possible when we work together.

Please join The Portland Beacon in honoring the fine public servants.
