New Mexico counties began meeting on an annual basis in 1936 to address their concerns and collaborate on initiatives. In 1968, the New Mexico Association of Counties (NMAC) was officially incorporated and has served as a statewide voice for all counties in New Mexico ever since. NMAC is an umbrella organization of county elected officials and employees. NMAC supports and promotes the idea that all county elected officials must have the opportunity to act together to solve problems and work for the progress of county government in New Mexico.
The Association
accomplishes this by providing legislative representation,
general research, lawsuit coordination, training and assistance
in developing and improving methods of administration and
financing county government. We offer insurance pools covering
worker's compensation and property, casualty and liability
insurance. Various publications and conferences assist county
officials in carrying out the duties of their office. NMAC is an
advocate for county government.

Wildfire Risk Reduction Program
for Rural Communities
2008 Program Information
The Wildfire Risk Reduction Program for Rural Communities was established in 2005 under the National Fire Plan to assist communities throughout New Mexico in reducing their risk from wildland fire on non-federal lands. The New Mexico Association of Counties (NMAC), a nonprofit community foundation, has partnered with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to administer the program and distribute awards.
The Affiliates are subsections of the Association that concentrate on specialized professional areas. The affiliates meet at our Midwinter Legislative Conference in January and at our annual conference in June.
Each affiliate elects officers and has separate bylaws that conform with those of the NMAC.
