Washington, DC – Sullivan County Manager Joshua Potosek has been named the Northeast Regional Vice President of the National Association of County Administrators (NACA). In this role he serves as NACA liaison with county administrators in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia.
“NACA provides valuable practical solutions and networking for me and my colleagues who oversee the operations of county governments nationwide,” Potosek remarked. “Having benefitted from NACA’s nuts-and-bolts approach to leadership issues, I’m proud to be introducing other municipal administrators to their apolitical advice, support and education.”
NACA also advocates for counties at the Federal level, and Potosek joined their recent Executive Committee meeting in Washington, DC as part of a National Association of Counties conference.
“NACA is relentlessly issues-oriented, offering real-world ideas and moderated best-practices webinars, among other useful services,” he explained. “Similar to my membership in the National Association of Counties and the International City-County Management Association (ICMA), NACA gives me insight into how other county leaders are addressing critical issues, and allows me to share our best practices with them, as well.”
