LGC 'S Mission Statement:

LGC's mission is to provide programs and services that strengthen the quality of its member governments and the ability of their officials and employees to serve the public by being a catalyst for dialogue and action, an advocate on issues, an advisor on problems, a provider of benefits and risk-management services, an educator/trainer in skills, and a resource for information.

History of  LGC:

The New Hampshire Municipal Association was established in 1941 to serve member cities and towns. It is one of 49 State municipal leagues in the United States that network through the National League of Cities. NHMA has always been a leader in innovative services for its members: Legal Advisory Services...Professional Recruitment Services...Law Lecture Series...Toll-free Hotline...Enhanced Member Services...and Pooled Risk Management Services.

One Board of Directors composed of 12 Municipal Officials, 12 School Officials, one County Official and six Employees. This new Board will oversee all of our services to members...not just the health or property-liability operations or just the traditional services we've provided to municipalities such as legal advisory services, training, handbooks, etc.

It is a unique structure in the whole country in that a traditional state municipal league has "re-invented" itself to serve all governmental units in their state and be governed by a Board that is composed not only of municipal officials but also school and county officials and employees. We realize that there will be "bumps in the road" as this model evolves and there is sure to be conflict but we are starting with the right collaborative attitudes.
