“A good deal of this summit is to show what Madison County is doing to become a model in the United States of Innovation, Economic Development and Service,” shared Clint Jones, Chairman of the Grants Committee which oversees MCCD.  “While working on the Supportive & Outreach Services panel it was clear that so many individuals and groups in Madison County are showing community leadership through service.  The work they do may not be ground-breaking but it’s the power and the outcomes that make their service innovative.  It is important they are recognized.”

Individual:  AJ Ciccarelli
