The Kentucky Association of Counties (KACo) is a state-level organization based in Frankfort, Kentucky, serving counties and their subdivisions through government relations work. Operating within the government relations services field, it supports county governance and policy engagement in Kentucky. The entity is a small to mid-sized organization reflecting its regional focus and member-driven activities. In 2026, KACo established the KACo Opioid Solutions Network (KOSN), a leadership cohort of 20 counties, including Graves, to guide investments of opioid settlement funds. It collaborates with external partners to support county initiatives, such as partnering with Kentucky Youth Advocates to report on opioid settlement fund expenditures, and it has arranged member benefits, including discounted tuition with Midway University and vehicle fleet-management services with Bachman Chevrolet. The organization has pursued leadership changes and community programs, including appointing David Livingston as President in 2023 and launching a K-8 art contest.
