Regional councils in Michigan are involved in a wide array of
community development and local government services to communities in their
regions. Some of the programs are regional in scope while others are local.
The nature and scope of the services vary considerably from region to
region, and are dependent on the needs and priorities of local communities,
rural/metropolitan nature of the region, mission of the regional council,
and resources available. The following are a few examples of programs and
services offered by many regional councils in Michigan:

administration of homeland security programs
