The November 2022 issue of America’s Defense Communities magazine is now available for digital download.

It has profiles of ADC’s Great American Defense Communities, a look at the future of the National Guard, and first-hand perspectives on the past, present and future of intergovernmental service agreements, along with other coverage.
