Model County Programs
NACo recognizes that County governments across the country, working alone and in cooperation with other governments at the municipal, state and national levels, develop innovative and successful programs in a wide range of service areas, including arts and historic preservation, children and youth, community and economic development, corrections, county administration, emergency management, environmental protection, health, human services, libraries, parks and recreation, transportation, volunteers and much more. Through our Achievement Awards, administered by the Research Division, NACo selects county programs which represent innovative and creative solutions to the problems local governments face.
We highlight here just a handful of these model programs to give you a cross-section of the programs being developed, implemented and enhanced from a cross-section of urban, suburban and rural counties across the county.
Our Model County Program Database includes programs from 1995 to 2001. The database may be searched by county, state and category.
