Unions and Associations
Regional and local officials are not represented by unions. The major professional organization for regional and local officials, especially city managers, is the International City/County Management Association. The NASPAA accredits degree programs in public affairs and administration. The National League of Cities is a membership organization for cities, villages, and towns, and the National Association of Counties represents our nation’s counties.
