2024 Florida Government Productivity Award Winner Announced

Melissa S. Curry, Vice President for Human Resources

I am pleased to announce that the Supporting Students in Distress training, a collaboration between UFHR Training & Organizational Development and the Counseling and Wellness Center, has been awarded the 2024 Florida Government Productivity Award.

The Florida Government Productivity Awards (formerly known as the Florida TaxWatch Productivity Awards) annually recognize state employees who demonstrate an outstanding commitment to finding innovative solutions that enhance efficiency and effectiveness in public service. 

This year, ten awards were presented to individuals and teams throughout Florida for their achievements in innovation and productivity improvements. UF’s award-winning team received a plaque and cash award in recognition of their hard work in creating added value for both the state of Florida and the University of Florida. It is an honor to celebrate their accomplishment. The 2024 winning team was recognized at a ceremony held in Tallahassee on Sept. 24.

Please join me in congratulating UF’s 2024 Florida Government Productivity Awards winning team:
