Sunshine Review reached an important milestone recently, and we’re in the mood to celebrate!

The Sunshine Review community has evaluated the level of transparency of official government websites for all 3,140 counties in the United States. Sunshine Review’s ten-point transparency checklist is now being utilized by government agencies all over the country as a guideline as they create and implement transparency projects. Watchdog groups, journalists, and public policy organizations are turning to Sunshine Review as their go-to source when measuring government transparency.

We owe a big thank you to our online community of sunshine volunteer contributors, citizens who use Sunshine Review to check up on their government, journalists and bloggers who write about our work, and our financial supporters.

Now, onward to the next challenge!
