What We Do

MAAG works closely with member governments and nonprofit organizations to identify,craft and advocate for legislation and public policy that serves to improve the overall quality of life for all residents.  We are the regional resource for federal programs supporting economic development initiatives.  We are your regional advocate for economic and infrastructure concerns and a hub for regional, senior-level government leaders to dialogue and create synergistic relations.

Welcome to MAAG!

It is my pleasure to formally introduce you to the Memphis Area Association of Governments (MAAG) – an organization designed to facilitate and support activities that stimulate economic and community development in our communities. This website is your guide to harnessing the power of MAAG to strengthen your connection to the world in which we live, play and do business.

Our goal is to aggressively work to create strong, healthy, vibrant communities by accessing all public resources available.   In essence, MAAG is here to connect you with the public resources that make your world better.  I invite you to take a look around our site.  If there is a service we provide or an issue we address that helps you, please let us know.  We look forward to hearing from you!

As we move forward,

Pamela D. Marshall
Executive Director
