FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Hartford, CT, August 27, 2025 – The Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) is pleased to announce that effective August 19, 2025, the agency has transitioned its website and email domain name from CRCOG.ORG to CRCOGCT.GOV. Any user searching for HTTPS://CRCOG.ORG will be redirected to CRCOG’s new address at HTTPS://CRCOGCT.GOV. CRCOG will continue to receive emails sent to username@crcog.org for the foreseeable future.
“Utilizing a .GOV domain protects our online presence and identity, as they are only issued to vetted government entities.” – Erik Snowden, IT/GIS/Cybersecurity Manager.
According to Matt Hart, CRCOG’s Executive Director, the new domain name “better reflects CRCOG’s identity and mission as a public agency created by state statute to provide planning and related services to our member municipalities and the region.”
We encourage our municipal members and the general public to update your email contacts to username@crcogct.gov and your links to our website to HTTPS://CRCOGCT.GOV.
