MORENO VALLEY, CA (October 6, 2023) -- The City of Moreno Valley has once again won multiple national and regional awards for videos highlighting the City’s programs, services, and events.

Moreno Valley also swept SCAN NATOA’s Best Public Service Announcement awards category for the City’s “Recycling is Organic,” “Beautify MoVal,” and “Juneteenth” videos. 

“I am consistently impressed with our Media and Communications Team's level of talent, professionalism, and innovation,” said Mayor Ulises Cabrera. “Year after year, their hard work is deservedly recognized on the national stage. I want to thank NATOA for this honor and congratulate our incredible team for proving they are the best in the business once again.”
