Do you want a voice in creating the national legislative policies of the National Association of Counties (NACo)?
The nomination process for membership on NACo policy steering committees is underway! Consider filling out a NACo nomination form to be appointed to one of ten steering committees.
If you are chosen as a NACo steering committee member, you would be responsible for debating and creating national policies and priorities affecting counties and serving on NACo’s front-line in their grassroots efforts. Committees meet at the NACo legislative and annual conferences and one other time during the year (you would be responsible for your own travel).
