How to Join NACo
Member benefits are just an invoice away!
Who can join NACo?
County governments. Once a county is a member, benefits extend to all county elected officials and staff.

NACo provides an opportunity for counties to work together to handle issues faced by counties every day. We are stronger together than apart

How much are my county's dues?
Dues are based on a county's 2010 Census population numbers and follow the calendar year — January through December.
Can my county join anytime throughout the year?
Yes. Your county dues will be prorated, depending on when you request an invoice.
How long does it take to become a member once I have requested an invoice?
