"As we have discussed many times at this year's Council meeting, government and healthcare successes do not get recognized in today's media, which focuses on headline-grabbing negative news stories,” said Parham Eftekhari, EVP of Marketing and Research for GTRA & HTRAC. “We are honored to have the opportunity to recognize these hard working men and women who are truly making a difference in our country by protecting our nation, saving lives, and improving the services which help run America. Congratulations to all of this year's nominees and winners."
