ABOUT US

The Eastern Carolina Council (ECC) a multi-county, local government, planning and development organization.  We are one of sixteen councils of government in NC.  These councils are forums where local officials determine priorities for the larger area in which their communities are an integral part.  ECC serves a region with a land mass of 5,710 square miles and a population of over 652,000 in the region’s nine counties (Carteret, Craven, Duplin, Green, Jones, Lenoir, Onslow, Pamlico and Wayne).  ECC is a conduit between local governments in our region and state/federal partners.  ECC’s Area Agency on Aging Department plans and administers a variety of federal, state, and local programs and services primarily targeted at supporting aging adults and their caregivers.  ECC’s Planning and Economic Development Department provides professional planning, economic, and community development services to member governments and partners at the local and regional levels.  We provide technical assistance to local governments and administer projects and programs which benefit our region’s citizens.
