Bringing complex projects across the finish line and realizing the objectives of long-planned initiatives is challenging anywhere. In New York's Hudson Valley and Catskills regions it can be increasingly daunting. With sensitive ecosystems, rich cultural and historic resources and diverse populations, communities in these regions have a big stake in what happens around them and they aren't afraid to let you know about it. Yet many of these communities face very real economic challenges and their young people are often hard-pressed to find professional opportunities that can keep them close to their families and the region they call home. Stockade Strategies brings 25 years of experience in government and economic and community development to serve corporate, not-for-profit and municipal clients throughout the Hudson Valley and Catskills regions. A combined understanding of the priorities of regional communities and stakeholders along with the interests and objectives of private sector investors drives a consensus-building approach to project management and community development. Connecting like-minded stakeholders, engaging in strategic project planning and growing opportunities for future generations of stewards of some of the most culturally and environmentally significant communities in New York is Stockade Strategies' core mission.
