Apply for an All-America City Award

Since 1949, the National Civic League has designated 10 communities each year as All-America Cities for their outstanding civic accomplishments. All-America Cities are collaborative innovators who are willing to put in the hard work to tackle today's most crucial local issues. To win, each community identifies three local efforts targeting pressing community challenges; together these projects should demonstrate innovation, impact, inclusiveness, civic engagement, and cross sector collaboration. Arizona cities and towns embody the All-America City spirit and should consider applying.

Not only does the All-America City application process give communities an opportunity to assess the community's civic strengths and challenges, it is also a way to increase civic engagement and vow to do more in the community. The All-America City Awards is an opportunity to form stronger bonds within the community, discover community assets, and to exchange ideas of what is working in American communities.

The 2016 award will spotlight programs that ensure all children are healthy and supported to succeed in school and life. Unlike any other event, the All-America City Experience, provides participants with lasting connections with community members and peers across the country, in-depth learning opportunities, and fun, energizing events!
