Advocates for
Good Government
You can help make local government in southwestern Pennsylvania work.
Local Government Academy is a unique resource for communities. As a non-partisan Non-Profit, we provide free or low-cost training to elected and appointed officials and municipal staff. Advocates make this possible.
But what does that mean for you?
Your sponsorship publicly demonstrates that your organization supports good governance and is willing to invest in education and leadership development for municipal officials and public sector employees.
