LEOs,

If you know a special team in human services, public administration, criminal justice administration, homeland security, public education, or fire and emergency management, read below see how to win a $1,000 to give to a charity (it will also be nice for the award too; only a 500 word essay):

DEADLINE: Nominations must be submitted between September 17 - October 25, 2012.

Kaplan University will honor one exemplary team in six public service categories that demonstrates the following qualities:

Energy and passion for making a difference in the lives of others
Enthusiasm for public service and a commitment to go above and beyond to exceed expectations

Strong team spirit and collaboration between all members of the team

We are asking you to help us identify teams that meet these criteria through your nominations. You can nominate a team of two or more by:

Submitting a one-page summary (500 words maximum) of how the team demonstrates empowerment in one of the public service categories and fulfills the qualities above.

Each winning team will be able to designate a charity of their choice that will receive a $1,000 donation from the College of Public Service, and a maximum of 10 team members will receive a complimentary course from the College of Public Service.
