National Association of Counties (NACo)

NACo LogoThe National Association of Counties (NACo) is the only national organization that represents county governments in the Unites States. NACo provides essential services to the nation’s 3,069 counties and advances issues with a unified voice before the federal government, assists counties in finding and sharing innovative solutions through education and research, and provides value-added services to save counties and taxpayers money.

All of Oregon’s 36 counties are members of NACo.

NACo is Here to Help You

Counties save time, staff, and dollars with NACo through its advocacy efforts, special programs, cost saving tools, research information, conferences, and much more. Your county can easily save more than your membership dues with NACo’s money saving programs and benefits for the county and its employees. As your county grapples with demands for more services while relying on less revenue, NACo gives you the tools to be more efficient and effective. At the same time, NACo is your eyes and ears in Washington, focusing on legislation that directly affects your county. NACo provides services to counties of all sizes and in all parts of the country—from small, rural counties to large, urban counties, and those in between.

To learn how NACo’s benefits can enable your county to save, please request additional information on NACo’s programs and services by contacting Kim Hall, Director of Membership.
