Program areas at Scenic Hudson
PROMOTING REGIONAL IDENTITY - We make the Hudson Valley more attractive to residents and employers by helping to create a shared sense of place and stewardship that is recognized far beyond our borders. We protect world-class beauty; conserve family farms that supply fresh food to local and New York City consumers and drive a growing farm-to-table movement; create parks offering recreation and inviting spaces for people to gather; and mobilize residents to speak out against threats to the Hudson River and other irreplaceable natural assets that make the Valley a great place to live and visit.
BUILDING COMMUNITY - We ensure that our work benefits all of the region's residents, urban and rural, especialy as demographic shifts continue. We respond to local concerns in diverse communities by partnering with residents and providing them with the expertise to turn neglected natural areas into safe places to exercise, relax, join with family and friends, and teach children about wildlife. In addition to uniting neighborhoods in a shared purpose, carrying out these initiatives affords much needed skill-building opportunities for teens and has the potential to attract new investment and jobs - the key for revitalizing our cities.
STREGNTHENING RESILIENCY - We further climate change adaptation and resilience in our land conservation and community planning work and develop new climate-mitigation policies consistent with our conservation values. We provide guidance for riverfront communities to adapt to and mitigate rising sea levels and other climate-change impacts, and develop strategies for embracing renewable energy without sacrificing core assets - iconic views, farmland, critical habitat, cultural/historic resources - that residents and visiors cherish. We help wildlife adapt by conserving lands containing irreplacebale (and flood-resistant) habitat and migration pathways. We also create and manage our parks to serve as models of resiliency.
