The Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (COG) is an independent nonprofit organization that serves as the regional partnership hub for the Washington metropolitan area, coordinating efforts to address growth and its impacts on transportation, the environment, and the economy. Based in Washington, D.C., it was founded in 1957 and brings together 300 elected officials from 24 local governments, along with the Maryland and Virginia state legislatures and the U.S. Congress. The organization aims to manage rapid regional growth—currently home to more than five million residents with another million anticipated by 2045—by advancing a shared vision for a prosperous, accessible, livable, and sustainable region. COG operates through a board of directors and a broad network of policy, technical, and advisory groups that includes elected leaders, police chiefs, housing directors, environmental experts, and transportation planners. Its staff comprises a substantial team of subject matter professionals who support member jurisdictions in pursuing regional solutions. In 2026, MWCOG awarded a managed cybersecurity services contract to Eagle Tech Corp, marking a concrete recent collaboration to strengthen the region's operations.
