Special districts are critically important to the success of our communities and our nation. The Special Districts Program -- an AT&T national initiative with Government Technology – continued its work of supporting the mission of these unique government entities in 2019. This publication highlights how leaders in key verticals, such as power, housing, transit, fire and libraries, have coalesced around solving important issues districts face by relying on technology innovation and new partnerships. Perhaps most importantly, the publication details how districts can adopt a future-forward mindset that helps them address the challenges of operating and protecting critical infrastructure and services today, while preparing for what’s ahead.
