ST. LUCIE COUNTY – The St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners has been recognized with four 2024 Achievement Awards, including a Best in Class from the National Association of Counties (NACo). The awards honor innovative, effective county government programs that strengthen services for residents.
St. Lucie County received 2024 Achievement Awards for the following programs:

Over the past 15 years, St. Lucie County has received more than 30 NACo Achievement Awards for its various programs and services.
Each year, NACo’s Achievement Awards recognize outstanding programming in 18 categories aligned with the vast, comprehensive services counties provide. The categories include children and youth, criminal justice and public safety, libraries, management, information technology, health, civic engagement and more. Launched in 1970, the program is designed to celebrate innovation in county government. Each nominated program is judged on its own merits and not against other applications.
“The Achievement Awards recognize excellence in county government and effective public service,” said NACo President Mary Jo McGuire. “This year’s winners have delivered results for our residents and demonstrated innovative efforts to strengthen our communities.”
