    Who We Are

    Lakes Country Service Cooperative (LCSC) is a public, nonprofit membership-based organization dedicated to providing quality, innovative services that help make our members successful. Originally created by legislation in 1976 to provide services to pre-k through 12 education, we have grown and expanded to provide quality, innovative programs to cities, counties, other governmental agencies, and non-profit agencies.

    Who We Serve

    • Local and State Government Agencies – Cities, Counties, Townships, State Agencies
    • Other Governmental Agencies – Housing, Redevelopment Authorities, Public Health, Govt. Associations and Joint Powers Groups
