About Us

The purpose of the National Association of County Planners (NACP) is to stimulate and contribute to the development, improvement, and recognition of county planning as a viable process in county government. NACP does this by providing a forum for county planners to disseminate information on the characteristics of the county planning function and to provide input on NACo policies that address county planning issues. NACP members exchange ideas and experiences related to county planning through meetings, technical workshops, the NACP newsletter, list serve, and website.

The NACP works to strengthen the realtionship between county planners, elected officials, and others while working closely with other planning organizations such as the Ameriacan Planning Association and the National Association of Regional Councils.

NACP is an affiliate of the National Association of Counties (NACo).
