What is the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners?

Founded in 1908, the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners is one of the most successful and active statewide local government associations in the nation. The NCACC was established for the betterment of county government in North Carolina. All 100 counties – and not individual county officials – are members of the Association. It is this strength in unity that makes the Association so effective. The NCACC is the only organization that represents all 100 county governments in North Carolina.
