Who are we?

Delta Council is an area economic development organization representing the eighteen Delta and part-Delta counties of Northwest Mississippi.

It was organized in 1935 by a group of farsighted citizens to provide a medium through which the agricultural, business, and professional leadership of the area could work together to solve common problems and promote the development of the economy of the area.

With headquarters at Stoneville, Mississippi, Delta Council is supported and financed by dues-paying members and by the counties that it represents. Its Board of Directors is elected by a referendum vote of the members representing the counties and municipalities of the area. Officers, including a president, a minimum of four vice presidents, and a treasurer are nominated by a nominating committee. Their nomination is ratified by the Board of Directors and by the membership of the organization. The staff of Delta Council is hired by the Executive Committee and serves at the pleasure of that committee.
