NACo has a new online Leadership course offering! This fully online and facilitated program provides the comprehensive detail that leaders need to navigate the changes of government work relative to available technologies and human needs of our society. 

If you are like most government leaders today, you are looking for the best way to understand the power of AI, mitigate the risk of AI, and navigate the complexity of cascading change occurring because of AI. Join your peers in this webinar to learn (and share) best practices in AI and digital transformation. Our AI Leadership Coaches, NACo CIO Rita Reynolds and PDA CEO Dr. Tim Rahschulte, will share details on the new NACo Artificial Intelligence (AI) Leadership Academy.

Join us for a 1-hour roundtable discussion where county leaders discuss the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in county government services – both now and tomorrow.

We'll also highlight emerging technologies and how county governments can start building a strong foundational understanding of AI before planning future investments.

Counties have access to new resources to improve community safety and reduce overdose deaths as a result of recent changes to federal Medicaid policy. Twenty-three states and the District of Columbia have applied for the Medicaid Reentry Demonstration waiver so far and eleven state proposals have been approved as of August 2024.

How will these changes affect your county? Join us to learn what is happening across the country as states and counties begin implementing these substantial systems changes. Key learnings from the MacArthur Foundation’s Safety and Justice Challenge work with 11 counties in California – the first approved waiver state -- will be shared along with implications for counties across the country. 

Election infrastructure is the backbone of our democracy, ensuring that every eligible vote is cast, counted, and reported securely and accurately. In recent years, however, election systems across the country have faced unprecedented challenges—ranging from cybersecurity threats to funding shortages—making it more critical than ever to invest in our election infrastructure. This webinar will bring together election experts to discuss the current state of election infrastructure and how adequate funding can strengthen election integrity, support local election officials, and protect voter confidence.
