The Greater Boston area offers one of
the most diverse collections of local government
anywhere. While some municipalities have
well-paid elected officials and civil servants,
others operate on a part-time basis with
few resources and little compensation.
Whatever the form of local government,
elected officials and others need to keep
in touch with the latest thinking on planning,
housing, transportation, finance, capital
budgeting, and other issues.
The Training for Newly Elected Officials
is held each winter and has reached over
55 elected officials in the past three
years at both the municipal and state level.
Below is a list of the participants from
our Training for Newly Elected Officials
