RE: Application for 2023–2024 Presidential Leadership and Committee Appointments
Thank you for your dedication to your county and counties across America through your membership in the National Association of Counties (NACo).
While you serve your county in vast ways, I ask you to strongly consider submitting your name for a leadership position at NACo. Together, we can achieve results for our counties and
the people we serve each and every day.
These appointments are for:
* Policy Steering Committee chairs and vice chairs and subcommittee chairs and vice chairs
* Large Urban County Caucus and Rural Action Caucus chairs and vice chairs
* Standing Committee chairs and vice chairs
* Ad Hoc Committee, Task Force and Advisory Board chairs and vice chairs
* At-Large NACo Board Directors
Below is more information for each committee and its specific appointment terms. Committee leaders must cover their own travel and conference expenses.
