the Constitutional Officers Association of New Jersey (COANJ)
National County Government Month (NCGM) is celebrated each April by the nation’s counties to raise public awareness and understanding about the roles and responsibilities of county government. The 2011 theme is "
Serving Our Veterans, Armed Forces and Their Families."More than 1,000 counties participate in NCGM each year by hosting a variety community outreach events and activities.
