Naval Information Forces (NAVIFOR) command is proud to have one of this year’s Annual Blacks In Government (BIG) Military Meritorious Service Award winner Evette M. Washington, who was honored during a reception held in Atlantic City, New Jersey, Aug. 23. BIG was established in 1975 and incorporated as a non-profit organization under the District of Columbia jurisdiction in 1976 by a small group of African Americans at the Public Health Services, which is a part of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) in Rockville, Maryland. BIG has been a national response to the need for African Americans in public service to organize around issues of mutual concern and to use their collective strength to confront workplace and community issues. BIG's goals are to promote equity in all aspects of American life, excellence in public service, and opportunity for all Americans. ( Navy photo by Robert Fluegel / RELEASED)
