Joining the Town and Gown Association
The International Town and Gown Association (ITGA) is a membership-based, nongovernmental organization managed by a board of directors. ITGA’s purpose is to become the primary information resource point for common issues between institutions of higher learning and the communities in which they reside. ITGA is the nation’s common link bringing together practitioners from varying fields to address common issues. It hosts a network of resources — including print and online publications, information databases, programs, training materials and consulting services — to help city and university leaders improve the quality of life in their communities.
