Mayor's Day of National Service Recognition
Every day, in cities and counties across America, national service is tackling tough problems and strengthening communities. On April 5, mayors
across the country will thank those who serve and recognize their impact on the Mayor and County Recognition Day for National
Service. Last year 2,786 mayors and county officials representing nearly 150 million Americans participated in this day.
The Nation's cities and counties are increasingly turning to national service as a cost-effective strategy to address local challenges. By
unleashing the power of citizens, AmeriCorps and Senior Corps programs have a positive and lasting impact, making our communities better
places to live. The initiative is being led by the National League of Cities, National Association of Counties, Cities of Service, and the
Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS).
Your participation can spotlight the importance of citizen engagement, recognize the dedication of national service members, and inspire more
residents to get involved in their communities. Communication and media outreach are key to the success of this effort. A communications toolkit
has been put together to help easily plan events and reach out to the media.
