The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) is a professional association of

Distinguished Budget Presentation Awards Program in 1984 to encourage and assist
state and local governments to prepare budget documents of the very highest quality
that reflect both the guidelines established by the National Advisory Council on State
and Local Budgeting and the GFOA's best practices on budgeting, and then to
recognize individual governments that succeed in achieving that goal.
The California Society of Municipal Finance Officers (CSMFO) is a statewide
organization serving all California municipal finance professionals, promoting excellence
in financial management through innovation, continuing education and the professional
development of its members.
