The American
Society for Public Administration (ASPA), established in 1939,
is the largest and most prominent professional association in the
field of public administration. With a diverse membership composed
of practitioners, teachers, and students, ASPA has
emerged as the focal point for intellectual and professional
interaction, thereby serving as the principal arena for linking
thought and practice within the field of public administration.
The
Massachusetts Chapter of ASPA (MassASPA) is a organization of professionals employed in federal, state and local
government, non-government organizations
providing public interest services, and professors and
students of public
administration at local universities. Each
year, MassASPA recognizes outstanding contributions to the public
service field with three awards: Distinguished Public Administrator,
Distinguished Citizen and the Paul G. Keough Scholarship Award.
