Military Communities Peer Network
Members of the Military Communities Peer Network come from municipalities that host or are in close proximity to a military installation and face unique challenges due to this circumstance. Points of interest to the group include transportation and infrastructure concerns that come with having a base in town or nearby, strategies for collaborating with the local military leadership, and ideas and programs designed to successfully integrate veterans and troops into the fabric of the community.
The Military Communities Peer Network was formed out of a desire by communities with or near a military installation to share concerns, ideas and best practices to address issues unique to their communities. Meetings of the group include speakers on a variety of topics and active exchange of ideas among group members.
Beginning January 2013, the group will be a formal NLC member council - the Military Communities Council - and will have a greater voice in the organization.
