From the Executive Director: Making Waves in Local Government
As summer winds down, Local Government Academy is making waves in local government with programs, partnerships, and opportunities that are helping communities across our region stay afloat and develop best practices for excellence in local government.
In this month’s newsletter, we dive into the conclusion of another successful Municipal Intern Program, celebrating the Class of 2026 and the next generation of public service professionals. We’ll also take a look at our recent financial literacy workshop with Brentwood Bank and the final session of our Planning 101 Webinar Series.
There’s plenty more making a splash this August, including funding and training opportunities from partners across the region. From the Powered & Prepared Initiative to the 2026 Commonwealth Building Officials Regional Code Conference, we hope these resources help local government professionals navigate the waters ahead.
So, jump in and see what’s happening this month at Local Government Academy!
