What is Seago?

The SouthEastern Arizona Governments Organization (SEAGO) is a regional planning agency which performs and coordinates a variety of functions. Established in 1972, SEAGO is a 501(c)3, nonprofit organization whose mission it is to assist local governments in seeking cooperative solutions to area wide problems; provide a forum for regional policy development, and to serve as a coordinating link between municipal, county, tribal, state, and federal agencies.

SEAGO serves the four counties of Cochise, Graham, Greenlee, and Santa Cruz. SEAGO‘s programs focus on issues that often cross jurisdictional boundaries, such as water quality, community and economic development initiatives, transportation, aging, social service issues and the need for affordable, accessible housing.

Originally a planning entity, SEAGO‘s operational scope has expanded considerably since its inception and now includes planning, project programming and implementation of activities. The majority of these activities are found in the areas of housing, economic development, social services, transportation, the environment, and public transit.

SEAGO is one of six Arizona Councils Of Governments (COGs).
