CCAO Celebrates National County Government Month with New Resources for Members

The County Commissioners Association of Ohio (CCAO) is proud to celebrate National County Government Month (NCGM) this April by highlighting the essential role counties play in strengthening communities across Ohio. To support our members in educating the public about county government, CCAO is releasing two brand-new educational videos showcasing the vital work of county officials.

This year, CCAO is introducing two engaging videos designed to illustrate the daily impact of county government:  The first video demonstrates how county government services touch residents' lives every day. The second video highlights the roles and responsibilities of County Commissioners, Executives, and Council members.

Each CCAO member will receive a flash drive containing both videos, making them easily accessible for presentations to schools, civic organizations, and local groups. These videos complement CCAO’s Ohio Counties Matter publication, which remains a valuable tool for educating the public on the importance of county government. They can also be found on CCAO’s YouTube page here.

CCAO encourages all counties to use these resources to educate, inspire, and celebrate the hard work and dedication of county leaders and employees. Together, let’s make National County Government Month a time to shine a spotlight on the critical services counties provide every day.
