About NHMA
The New Hampshire Municipal Association (NHMA) is a nonprofit, non-partisan membership organization of municipalities. Founded in 1941 for the purpose of exchanging information in the interest of facilitating more efficient and effective local government, NHMA was reorganized in July 2003 under the umbrella of the New Hampshire Local Government Center (LGC).
NHMA provides advocacy support for member municipalities, plus educational and training programs for local government officials and employees. Advocacy activities are governed by a Municipal Advocacy Committee (MAC) comprised of municipal officials from throughout New Hampshire.
NHMA Government Affairs staff members represent members’ interests before the New Hampshire General Court (House and Senate) and various state agencies. At the September 17, 2010, Legislative Policy Conference, NHMA members adopted legislative policy positions for the 2011-2012 biennium. Review NHMA's 2011-2012 Legislative Policy Positions (PDF).
