The Livable Nashua dashboard created a totally new way for the City to educate the public on the many great programs and initiatives we are already doing, provide transparent data and really start engaging the community on long-term goal setting. Working with KLA has been a truly positive relationship. They are organized, clear, concise and completely able to implement projects on schedule.
Sarah Marchant
Community Development Director, City of Nashua, NH
Working with Kim and her team has been so easy. They are experts in both Climate Action Planning and web design. The matchup is perfect when it comes to the development of our dashboard. I don’t have to explain our data or emissions reduction goals – KLA just knows! We’re really excited to see what the KLA team comes up with for our dashboard!
Crystal Najera
Climate Action Administrator, City of Encinitas, CA
I love love love the social media content KLA sends every month, it is exactly what we need to engage the community in a fun and interactive way. We would never have time to generate this content ourselves.

KLA didn't just check the boxes. They helped us make the most of the MA Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness program by including equitable community engagement and a series of compelling educational videos - which were a big hit in town! It has built a solid foundation for resilience in Concord thanks to KLA.
Kate Hanley
Sustainability Officer, Concord, MA
The KLA team understands our reality of changing priorities and fast-moving timelines, and delivers extremely quick and responsive work when we are pressed for time and have last minute requests.
Jonathan Carvalho
Public Information Officer, City of New Bedford, MA
We are impressed and grateful for the contributions made by KLA during our recently completed Municipal Vulnerability Planning process. KLA CEO Kim Lundgren and her team possess the expertise and professionalism we desired and are a unique firm with a finger on the pulse of preparedness planning and a vision for the future.

Through adept project management and engaging public outreach, KLA helped us develop realistic action items and communicate complex issues to a broad audience. We enjoyed working with the KLA team and would happily recommend them to other communities looking for dynamic public process project management, branding and communication efforts.
