The Alliance was created to provide members with the widest and deepest innovation based network to serve local governments. Building on a rich tradition of regional networking, organization-wide membership, thought-provoking learning opportunities and personalized member services, the Alliance brings professionals, local governments, academics, and private sector partners together to discover and apply the best ideas, practices and solutions to the challenges confronting local governments and communities. Membership consists of nearly 350 organizations across the US and Canada that are dedicated to making an impact on the communities they serve. After completing an analysis of the Alliance membership, Dr. James Svara, Director of the Center on Urban Innovation at Arizona State University concluded that “82% of Alliance members are above the average city in their adoption of innovative practices.”  Click Here to Join the Alliance for Innovation
