OUR SERVICES

HOLA SOMOS LOS
CONSEJO DE GOBIERNOS DEL ESTE DE TEXAS

We are a voluntary association of counties, cities, school districts and special districts within the fourteen-county East Texas region. 

We assist local governments in planning for common needs, cooperating for mutual benefit and coordinating for sound regional development.


We serve as the bridge between federal, state, and local governments, helping cities and counties solve challenges and impact the future regionally. Established in 1970, ETCOG, either directly or through its contractors, provides programs and services for East Texas seniors, employers, and job seekers. ETCOG and its contractors also build the 9-1-1 emergency call delivery system, provide peace officer training and homeland security planning services, and deliver rural transportation services, business finance programs, and environmental grant funding for the region. 


We serve Anderson, Camp, Cherokee, Gregg, Harrison, Henderson, Marion, Panola, Rains, Rusk, Smith, Upshur, Van Zandt, and Wood counties.

    Public Hearing -TxCDBG Program Regional Project Types

    por East Texas Council of Governments • 02 abr., 2024
    ETCOG will hold its next Executive Committee meeting on Thursday, May 9, beginning at noon. The agenda will incorporate a Public Hearing to discuss and determine the Texas Community Development Block Grant (TxCDBG) Program Regional Project Priority types. As part of the standard program process, each of the 24 regions in the State is encouraged to determine the regional project priority types for the program. During the Public Hearing, all stakeholders can discuss and provide input on what these CDBG Regional Project Priority types should be for the East Texas Region with the ETCOG Executive Committee. The meeting will include a public comment period. ETCOG invites anyone with input on the TxCDBG program to submit oral or written testimony in person or submit written comments directly to PublicComments@etcog.org by 11:00 a.m. on May 9, 2024. ETCOG will submit the adopted priority project types for the East Texas Region to the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA), which administers TxCDBG, by May 15, 2024. TDA will use these project types to score grant applications in the 2025-2026 funding cycle.

    OUR REGION

    Councils of Governments (COGs) are voluntary associations of local governments formed under Texas law. The East Texas Council of Governments serves fourteen counties in the East Texas region.

    Centrally located within the United States, East Texas is easily accessible by air, rail and road. Our region has top-notch education and workforce training institutes. And you just will not find anywhere else with the combination of rolling hills, piney woods and vast, clear lakes that comprise the largely undeveloped East Texas landscape.

    LO QUE PIENSAN NUESTROS MIEMBROS

    JUDGE BILL STOUDT

    Gregg County
    East Texas Council of Governments represents a collective initiative by member counties to make our Region of the State a better place to live and raise a family.

    JUDGE ROBERT JOHNSTON

    Anderson County
    I am pleased with the accountability, transparency, and efficiency ETCOG delivers for our local elected officials everyday. Frankly, ETCOG's scope and span of programs and services may be one of our region's most unfamiliar assets!

    CONSEJERO BOB TARDIFF

    City of Lindale
    I am very honored to have been elected as Board Chairman for
    an organization consisting of so many outstanding community
    leaders. I continue to enjoy working with each of them and the ETCOG staff as we collectively
    address the many shared concerns of our communities.
