About
the THE EXCELLENCE PUBLIC
SERVICE SERIES
The Dwight D. Eisenhower
Excellence in Public Service series is part of the Winning Women series as developed by
Senator Richard G. Lugar of Indiana.
The series has been
hugely successful in states such as Indiana, where 85% of the
participants moved into higher levels of participation in the
political process after completing the program. In Indiana, they
naturally attracted a diverse group of women with varying levels of
education, choice of profession, marital status and age. There are
currently 20 State Programs (please see below) with 1,248 graduates
in the Excellence in Public Service Series National Coalition.
Amanda Adkins and Kari Bruffett are the founders and
co-chairs of the Series. The honorary board includes Mary Brownback,
Franki Roberts, Vicki Tiahrt, Robba Moran, Anne Ryun, June Cooper,
Jan Meyers, Lynn Jenkins, and Sandy Praeger.
Founding Member The Dwight D. Eisenhower
Excellence in Public Service Series was established through the
generosity and encouragement of Mr. John Uhlmann, who lived
in Shawnee Mission, Kansas until his passing.
