ADC Expands Defense Community Champion Program; Webinar Set for Thursday

October 17, 2022

ADC will host a launch webinar Thursday at 3 p.m. EDT to kick off the nominations process for the Defense Community Champion program. You can sign up on the Defense Community Champion website.

The Defense Community Champion program was launched last year, honoring 10 individuals from across the country at the 2022 Defense Communities National Summit. Now it’s expanding to give communities the chance to select local champions, some of whom will then be honored nationally.
