Arizona Excels in National
E-Government Competition August 31, 2006—Based on a strong track record of serving Arizona citizens, Arizona 2-1-1 Online has been recognized at the national level with a Digital Government Achievement Award for the “Best Government to Citizen Project.” “I am very happy to see Arizona 2-1-1 Online win this prestigious award,” said Chris Cummiskey, State Chief Information Officer and Chair of the Governor’s Council on 2-1-1. “Since going live in June 2005, the value of 2-1-1 has been proven in both day-to-day usage and during wildland fires, floods and other natural disasters.” The Digital Government Achievement Awards are part of a national program that recognizes outstanding agency and department Web sites and applications that enhance information interactions, transactions and/or services. These awards are sponsored by the Center for Digital Government, a national research and advisory institute on information technology policies and best practices in state and local government. In addition, the State Web portal, Arizona @ Your Service, finished as a finalist in the Best of the Web competition also sponsored by the Center for Digital Government.
