The Concho Valley Council of Governments (CVCOG) was organized in 1967 to strengthen local governments and provide a vehicle for joint and coordinated programs. It is the mission of CVCOG to support each unit of local government in the Concho Valley region, seek to reach community goals, and provide services in the most effective and efficient manner for the lowest possible cost. To assist in reaching this goal, the Concho Valley Council of Governments will strive to:

• Share information about local community programs and initiatives that have successfully addressed and resolved problems experienced by one or more local governments;
• Identify areas where communities may wish to work together to achieve mutually desired goals and effective cost-saving strategies;
• Learn about state and federal programs and how they may be accessed to further serve the citizens of each local unit of government; and
• Develop relationships among the various local government units that will serve to foresee and prevent future problems.
