Why Attend the NACo Conference in 2025
The NACo Annual Conference brings together county officials, administrators, and staff to focus on federal policy, emerging trends, and operational challenges. Sessions cover infrastructure, health, justice, budgeting, and workforce development. The agenda is built around the work counties are doing right now, with a focus on results, funding, and implementation. Attendees gain practical insight from peers and national policy leaders with direct relevance to local government.
Philadelphia as Host City
Philadelphia operates as a consolidated city-county, which gives it a unique structure that mirrors challenges many counties face. Aging infrastructure, diverse populations, and the pressure to modernize while preserving legacy systems are all part of the local government context here. Attendees will be surrounded by examples of the same operational complexity they manage in their own jurisdictions.
First-Time Attendees
If this is your first time at a NACo conference, expect to be in the room with decision-makers who are actually implementing programs, not just talking about them. You’ll find county executives, budget officers, planners, and legal staff discussing policies they’ve tested and refined. The sessions are accessible, grounded, and relevant. You don’t need to be a policy expert to walk away with something useful.
