South Central Service Cooperative has been facilitating programs and services between local governments and school districts across south central Minnesota since 1976. We believe services are most effective when implemented at a regional level rather than a “one size fits all approach,” which may occur when mandates are managed at the state and federal levels. Facilitating services regionally creates economies of scale and maintains a consistency in the process that positively affects local governments and school districts.

Local Government Solutions

Since 1976, South Central Service Cooperative (SCSC) has been facilitating programs and services between local governments across south central Minnesota. Tighter state and federal budgets have increased pressure on local governments to maintain or reduce costs. Sharing services regionally creates economies of scale as well as maintains a consistency in process that positively impacts local governments. Regionally facilitated programs allow local governments to retain the benefits of decentralized control. This cost-savings strategy can be an effective way to manage costs during these difficult financial times.
