Texas Association of Counties
Since 1969, Texas counties have joined together through the Texas Association of Counties (TAC) to improve and promote the value of county government. TAC provides resources and support for Texas counties and more than 4,400 county officials.
Through TAC, counties work together to respond to the evolving needs of Texans across the state, from the Gulf Coast to Far West Texas to the Panhandle and the Piney Woods. By serving Texas counties, TAC staff touch the lives of every Texan.
County officials govern TAC and guide the programs and services it delivers to counties statewide. These include education and training, a representative voice at the state and federal levels of government, legal resources, county news and best practices, email and website hosting services, the TAC Health Employee Benefits Pool, the TAC Risk Management Pool, the TAC Unemployment Compensation Fund, comprehensive risk management services and programs, and customized employee wellness programs.
