15th Annual Awards Ceremony October 16th 2012
Message from the Chair and the Vice Chair
Welcome to the annual awards ceremony of the Inspector General community and of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency. We are privileged to be here today to recognize the range of accomplishments of our member agencies.
Public service is a rewarding and noble calling. Today we honor those in our community who have distinguished themselves in their endeavors and who have contributed to the well-being of the Nation. In so many ways, our community of dedicated people touches the life of every American every day – from meeting such basic human needs as food, shelter, and medical care; to creating a strong economy and infrastructure with access to education, arts, and science; to strengthening America’s position at home and abroad.
And so, we congratulate this year’s winners, who exemplify the best in public service. You have been chosen by your peers for your dedication, leadership, and hard work. You have taken risks, persevered, partnered with others, and faced unforeseen challenges. Thank you for everything you have done for the American people.
