The County Officials Association of Tennessee (COAT) is a non-profit association of County Clerks, State Court Clerks, Registers and Trustees. COAT was formed in 1968 to serve coordinated efforts of county officials with respect to training and intergovernmental relations while providing a cooperative information sharing environment.

COAT is managed by a 17 member voting board of directors, about half of whom are elected annually during each fall COAT Association meeting. Representatives from the various county official groups that serve as COAT affiliates gather during the association meeting to discuss issues relating to their county offices.
