The Council of State Governments is a non-profit organization that serves all three branches of state government. It operates as a region-based forum designed to exchange insights and ideas that help state officials shape public policy. Based in Lexington, Kentucky, and founded in 1933, the organization offers regional, national, and international opportunities for networking, leadership development, collaboration, and the creation of problem-solving partnerships. Its primary constituency comprises state officials across legislative, executive, and judicial branches, seeking practical forums to address policy challenges and governance questions. Positioned as a national but regionally grounded body, CSG emphasizes leadership development, collaboration, and coordinated problem-solving among states. In 2026, the organization advanced a concrete initiative by collaborating with Yale Law School's Justice Collaboratory to develop a statewide community engagement training program for Connecticut law enforcement.
