At the General Assembly Web site, you can also select Help and be linked to a list of frequently asked questions and their answers about how legislation is created and passed.
Most local decisions regarding developmental disabilities services and supports are made by the county commissioners. County commissioners oversee much of the budget for the local area programs/local management entities.

For most counties, you can click on the county on the map and it will link you to that county's Web site.

To find out who your city or town leaders are, you can go the Web site for the North Carolina League of Municipalities. At this Web site, you can access a list of all the towns and cities in North Carolina and the name of the mayor and/or key official and their contact information.
