What does North Dakota Association of Counties do?

We support North Dakota counties in many ways. Lobbying the state legislature and congress was the first reason for the counties to join together, and remains one of our primary functions. We also give counties joint power in purchasing, grants and many programs.

For more details, please explore this website, particularly the Programs and Services area.

Here's an ancient proverb about why county governments (or anyone else) would join together to form an association:

"You think that because you understand ONE, you understand TWO, because one and one makes two. But you must understand AND."
