Statewide has an impressive history of service to electric cooperatives in thestate since 1943. The original purpose was to form a group large enough tocomply with insurance requirements to secure group insurance for the employeesof the member associations. During this early organizational period, the grouplaunched a statewide publication and established a safety program for memberassociations.

As the statewide association grew, it offered expanded services. By 1963, serv-ices included extensive work in the broad field of public, member and govern-ment relations; and a credit union for employees of member associations.

In addition to being responsive to our members’ needs and providing qualityservices, our goal is to be the respected, uniLed voice of all electric power associ-ations throughout Mississippi. And now, more than ever, people are listening!Working together, we develop a mission statement and implement a plan toensure the message will be delivered by a powerful voice.

As a not-for-pro,t, an electric power associationpays capital credits to members or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the year.� A board of directors, composed of members elected by themembership, governs an electric power association. The boardestablishes bylaws, policies and rates that re-ect the individuality and needs of the membership. As local leaders,directors are responsive to local needs.� Employees are local residents who share a personal andprofessional interest in the well-being of their community.They embody the cooperative spirit of community involvement by participating in worthwhile causes.� Electric power associations promote energy-e+ciency programs to help their members reduce energy costs.� Mississippi’s electricpower associations havemutual-aid agreements to helpeach other restoreservice to members duringmajor power outages. Theymay also obtain assistance from(or o*er it to) out-of-stateelectric coopera-tives.
