State & Local Governments

We help organizations design and promote programs that engage people in achieving important environmental, economic, and social objectives so that everyone in the community can prosper and thrive.

State and local governments of all sizes have an extraordinary opportunity to develop and implement sustainability goals and programs that leverage the billions of dollars in federal funding available over the next decade. Our experience with government agencies and our expertise in sustainability, program design, stakeholder engagement, marketing, city planning, and grant writing positions us perfectly to help our government clients meet their goals and the needs of their communities. With thoughtful strategy, impactful design, and reliable execution, we can work to transform communities across the nation in an equitable, resilient, and sustainable way.

Our specialists have vast experience managing programs and funding for the US Department of Energy, US Environmental Protection Agency, US Department of Transportation, and other national initiatives funded by settlement dollars.
