CSG Associates Program

CSG has long believed private sector involvement in the American governance system is critical in formulating sound solutions to public policy challenges.  The CSG Associates Program facilitates this interaction by engaging government affairs professionals in the Council’s program and policy work, its national and regional conferences, and its information network. CSG Associates bring their perspectives to the Council’s state trends identification and analysis process and make significant contributions to its meetings and international exchanges.

Annual dues are $6,000, and your membership begins as soon as you sign on and runs for one year from enrollment. Here are a few of the benefits:
