NCL members are either state municipal leagues or individual cities who are direct members. Although NLC does not operate regional offices, some of the state league directors participate in organized regional groups. There is also a state league steering committee that is based on regional representation. NLC also provides updates to member cities and state leagues through the Nation's Cities Weekly newspaper. The national office coordinates with the states when reaching out to the cities, but there is no regional office, per se.
Most technical assistance is provided through the national office.
They also follow the federal regional structure and services are usually provided from headquarters out to the regions. WtW is currently involved in a new initiative with FDIC to provide financial literacy training though the one-stop centers. FDIC has different regional structures and their regions have more control, so the provision of services differs across regions. The regions sponsored a series of workshops that led to coordination of activities. Two current activities are the provision of TA and negotiating the grant making process.
