ASC 20th Anniversary and the ASC 20 Awards

     

 

On September 12, 2017, we celebrated 20 years of America's Service Commissions and launched our new logo and brand with more than 250 invited guests at the Kennedy Caucus Room, located on Capitol Hill in the Russell Senate Building in Washington, D.C. View event sponsors, photos, and video below.

To honor our 20th anniversary, we were proud to spotlight the following 20 individuals as the ASC 20, longtime state service champions who have made our work possible since our organization's inception in 1997.
