5/5/08 St. Joseph, MO
Representatives from regional planning commissions (RPCs) and councils of government (COGs) converged on St. Joseph, Missouri May 5-7 to participate in the first-ever Four-State Professional Development Conference. The conference provided an opportunity for RPC and COG directors and staff from around the midwest to meet one another, professionally network, and take part in multiple peer-led sessions focusing on the issues important to their organizations. MACOG would like to thank the Economic Development Administration for funding the conference, and the National Association of Development Organizations for serving as conference organizer.
