NGA

The National Governors Association (NGA), founded in 1908, stands as a leading bipartisan public policy organization representing the governors of the 55 U.S. states, territories, and commonwealths. Committed to fostering collaboration across political lines, NGA serves as a vital platform where governors can exchange best practices and develop innovative solutions to address pressing issues affecting citizens’ lives and uphold the principles of federalism.

NGA offers a wide range of services, including the Center for Best Practices, which facilitates information sharing and research on public policy challenges across 14 key program areas such as healthcare delivery, education, and cybersecurity. The association also provides robust member services to assist governors and their teams throughout their terms with resources and legislative guidance. Through task forces and advocacy initiatives, NGA plays a crucial role in shaping federal policies and elevating the voices of state leaders, ultimately driving progress and enhancing economic development across the nation.
