The NACo team is on-site at the 2024 Annual Conference in Hillsborough County, Fla. Here's a Resource Roundup highlighting just a few of the dozens of new and updated publications released this week. Stay tuned for more!
Today is the final day of the 2024 NACo Annual Conference & Exposition in Hillsborough County, Fla. Throughout the conference, county leaders discussed the most pressing challenges facing our communities, shared replicable solutions and set NACo’s federal policy agenda.
Since launching in February 2023, NACo’s Commission on Mental Health and Wellbeing focused on strengthening our response to the nation’s mental and behavioral health crisis.
Over the past year, NACo’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) Exploratory Committee studied emerging policies and practices.
The committee examined the potential applications and consequences of AI through the lens of county governance, operations, constituent services, innovation, public trust, privacy and security, and workforce productivity.
Compass for Counties: At the conference, the committee released a comprehensive toolkit to help counties consider, adopt and regulate the use of generative AI.
Equipping county leaders: The toolkit provides strategies and practices to bridge divisions within county government, between the levels of government, and between government and the communities we serve.
The Annual Conference capped a year of accomplishments for America’s counties. We debuted new toolkits, reports and action centers, and celebrated what we achieved together.
