This year, Public Service Recognition Week will be observed May 7-13, 2023, and honors all government civilian personnel that serve our nation. Public Service Recognition Week has been celebrated during the first week of May since 1985 to honor the people who serve our nation as federal, state, county, local and tribal government employees.

Army Civilians have been an integral part of our country’s history, supporting the Army’s mission since 1776. Since our country’s inception through present day, the Army has relied on its civilian workforce to meet countless key roles in support of the warfighter.
