Top of Alabama Regional Council of Governments

Area Agency on Aging, Community Planning, and Economic Development

TARCOG helps local governments improve the quality of life for the region’s more than 550,000 residents. The Council does this by obtaining funding for local government assistance, coordinating local governments’ responses to regional issues, and providing a wide range of services to the region’s governments and residents. TARCOG helps member governments work together to address issues best solved cooperatively, rather than independently. TARCOG also provides services and technical assistance to different communities that are unable to provide their own personnel due to funding issues. The services are in three program areas: Aging, Economic Development, and Planning.
