ACCG, Advancing Georgia's Counties, is a trusted brand that serves as the official advocate for all 159 county governments in Georgia at the state and federal level. With a solid foundation in public policy and legislative advocacy, ACCG was established in 1914 by county commissioners to secure federal road funds for Georgia, which led to the creation of the Georgia Department of Transportation. Today, ACCG remains actively engaged in monitoring and testifying before legislative study committees, developing policies, and providing assistance to counties with legislative outreach efforts.

ACCG's Governmental Affairs and Public Policy division ensures that county officials have access to all the necessary information related to the association's efforts at the state capitol and national level. County officials can visit ACCG's website for policy-related news, tools, resources, and publications to enhance their leadership skills and make informed decisions. ACCG encourages county officials to build relationships with their state and federal legislators, recognizing that legislative advocacy is a year-round commitment.
