CONNECT IN THE NEWS
WHAT WE DO
Neighboring communities share a wide range of issues. With the CONNECT model, they’re sharing solutions, too.
Serving as a local government policy and program innovation and incubator, the CONNECT network provides resources, research, relationships, and the trust to act together.
