1993 NACo ACHIEVEMENT AWARD PROGRAM SUMMARY <br /> RESULTS (Describe the tangible results of the program: cost savings, service improvements,etc. Tell how the <br /> program benefited the county or community.) <br /> • <br /> By implementing this project, the County has expanded its <br /> methods of communicating with the public. This innovative, and <br /> non-traditional approach to disseminating public information, <br /> serves as an enhancement to our communication efforts. It is <br /> important to note that these systems are not considered as <br /> replacements for regular county government public information <br /> service. To the contrary, this project can reach out to new <br /> groups of citizens, those who have not or do not know how to <br /> access county services, i.e. , new residents and the mobile student <br /> population, and- to people who need the convenience provided by the <br /> systems . Getting information to citizens is a major concern for <br /> our county officials. And, by placing these information systems <br /> in locations that are frequented by the public, we are <br /> anticipating to provide increased access to information, and <br /> ultimately meeting the needs of our citizens . <br /> • <br /> INDEXING IDENTIFIERS <br /> For example, a program entitled "Prenatal Care Access" where a <br /> List 5 words or phrases that best de- county,in conjunction with pri vate organizations,created a system to <br /> scribe your program and can be used improve access to prenatal care, might consist of the following <br /> to index your program.
