History of the Awards

The Awards began in the 1960's when it became increasingly difficult to recruit the highest levels of talent for government service. In response, the National Civil Service League initiated a program to recognize outstanding service by both public employees and private citizens who volunteer their time to the public service. At the invitation of Dr. Albert H. Rosenthal, former Professor of Public Administration at the University of New Mexico, the awards were brought to our State and then Governor Cargo and the New Mexico Distinguished Public Service Awards were born.

The primary objective of the awards is to recognize outstanding contributions to the public service and to the improvement of the government at all levels by both government employees and private citizens. The awards recognize and celebrate the role of civic leaders in improved government while encouraging the highest levels of excellence in the pursuit of public service. Ultimately, the Awards heighten awareness and appreciation of public service achieving President's Kennedy's goal of drawing the best and brightest to all levels of public service.

Awards are given in four categories:

  • Federal Government and National Laboratories

  • State Government and Universities

  • Local and Native American/Navajo Government

  • Business and Civic

Please join us in honoring this year's awardees.
