Rural County Representatives of California (RCRC)

During a visit to Washington D.C. in early October, our host, Paul A. Smith, sat down with Matt Chase, CEO and Executive Director of the National Association of Counties (NACo), RCRC's national advocacy partner, for a conversation about the important work NACo does on behalf of and in partnership with counties across the nation.

NACo represents counties as intergovernmental partner, driving federal policy on behalf of America's counties. Beyond federal advocacy, NACo addresses national policy trends and works with county governments as policymakers to meet the needs of communities.

  • What is the role of NACo with California and rural California?
  • What are NACo's advocacy priorities, and how does NACo work in partnership with local and federal governments to find solutions to long term problems?
