National Center for Interstate Compacts

The National Center for Interstate Compacts (NCIC) is an organization that helps states in the U.S. collaborate on shared issues through formal agreements known as interstate compacts. These compacts allow states to work together on matters like public health, resource management, and criminal justice. The NCIC provides resources, legal advice, and support to ensure these agreements are effective and compliant with state and federal laws. By facilitating cooperation among states, the NCIC helps address challenges that cross state lines, promoting efficient governance and resource sharing.
