In response to the growing challenges facing our local governments in Northeastern Pennsylvania, NEPA assembled a professional local government services staff with a wide array of expertise in municipal operations, government administration, community planning, program development, project management and resource identification.

To better serve our region’s needs, the Local Government Services Division is focusing our staff’s professional talents toward addressing the requests and referrals for assistance we receive from municipalities. In addition to developing a service provider relationship with our communities, efforts are directed toward developing relationships with other Federal, State and Local agencies, advocacy organizations, private sector consultants as well as professional resources services and institutions with the intention of extending valuable information and professional assistance to local governments throughout the region. Many of these services are provided through multiple Federal and State contracts which are reviewed and modified annually to meet the ever changing demands of the 267 municipalities in our region.
