The nation’s largest meeting of county leaders drew nearly 3,000 attendees to discuss a wide range of policy issues, exchange best practices, and hear from inspirational speakers and thought leaders.

“We were happy to see that more than 30 Tennessee county officials attended the NACo Conference this year,” said TCSA Executive Director David Connor. “It was a conference full of great information for our officials, and we’re glad to see Tennessee represented on a national level.”

Dozens of sessions featured policy and subject matter experts, private sector and nonprofit thought leaders, and intergovernmental partners.
