As communities around the globe host events to celebrate National Black History Month, ICMA highlights recipients of its 2018 Community Diversity and Inclusion Program Excellence Award.
Programs in Flossmoor, Illinois; Oakley, California; and San Antonio, Texas, received awards during the inaugural year of the award category. The Community Diversity and Inclusion award recognizes communities for organizational achievements building or celebrating diversity and inclusiveness.
