Technical Assistance

Pennsylvania municipalities deliver essential services that keep communities safe, strong, and thriving. But as local needs grow more complex, many municipalities face challenges—from limited resources to difficulty recruiting and retaining skilled professionals. Our technical assistance helps bridge these gaps, supporting projects that advance sustainability, strengthen operations, and improve quality of life across the Commonwealth. The Governor’s Center for Local Government Services (GCLGS) supports municipalities by offering technical assistance for essential and short-term projects in the areas of:

• Police Services
• Fire Services
• Emergency Medical Services
• Community Planning
• Municipal Government, Operations, and Finance

If assistance in one of these areas would be helpful to your municipality, please complete our Request for Technical Assistance (RTA) form.

Once submitted, a GCLGS Specialist will contact the Primary Contact Person identified in the form to review the request and determine what services may be available.
