| The month of May has been declared "Civility Awareness Month" to celebrate the spirit of civility among all people regardless of race, creed, color, or station in life.

The City, County, and Local Government Law Section of the Florida Bar urge the adoption of a pledge of civility by all citizens in the state of Florida.
The art of civility requires constant application every day; however, during the month of May we celebrate civility by treating each other in our schools, communities, businesses, and families with the three "R" Principles of Civility - Respect, Restraint, and Responsibility that is positive, kind, and inclusive. |
