KPF Prosecutor Community Service Award

In 2014, the Kansas Prosecutor Foundation gave out its first ever annual Community Service Award.  The award is intended to recognize a Kansas prosecutor who has rendered outstanding service to his or her community in addition to the performance of the duties required by the position of a prosecutor.

Nominations for the award include a biography of the nominee, as well as a description of the community service for which the prosecutor is being nominated. Final selection for the award will be made by the Board of Directors of the KPF, and the award will be presented at the KCDAA Spring Conference each June.

To nominate yourself or one of your colleagues, please use the nomination form here. You may send your nomination with any additional pages by mail, fax or e-mail to:
