Junior Civitans awarded month for their service

The Junior Civitans of Minden honored Angelita Police Hudson with the Civitan International Servant’s Heart Award after the Minden City Council Regular Session on April 1, 2019.  The award is presented by local Civitan Clubs in communities across North America in recognition of outstanding service to people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (I/DD). The Servant’s Heart Award is a multi-disciplinary award recognizing outstanding teachers, therapists, paraprofessionals, social workers, mentors or others working with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.  The award is an initiative of Civitan International, which has made service to people with I/DD a major focus for more than 70 years. During the presentation Mayor Terry Gardner also proclaimed April 2019 as Civitan Awareness Month for the Servant’s Heart award for the Minden Community Junior Civitan Club.
