2026 National County Government Month Has Begun!
This April, we’re proud to celebrate the essential role counties play in shaping strong, vibrant communities across our beautiful state of Washington. From the front lines of public service to the halls of Olympia, counties lead with innovation, build resilience, and ensure the voices of local communities are heard. Our 2026 theme, “We Are WA Counties, 39 Counties Strong,” highlights the collective strength, unity, and impact of county government across our state.
Throughout April, we’ll be shining a spotlight on the incredible work happening in counties across Washington by those behind the scenes and through strong partnerships with our affiliate organizations and departments, starting with the Washington Association of County Solid Waste Managers (WACSWM)! We invite you to take time this month to learn about these organizations and the important work they do to support counties' vital services.
Get to Know the WACSWM Co-Chairs!
