Cerrell’s team of professionals draws upon our firm’s four-plus decades of experience to create and implement effective strategies and innovative tactics for our clients.  We design and execute comprehensive public affairs campaigns for businesses, trade associations, non-profits and others throughout California.

We’re experts at traditional issues management techniques and, with greater frequency, are leveraging the power of 21^st Century technology – most particularly through the use of various social media platforms – to target, educate, and activate diverse constituencies and interact with the news media and decision makers at all levels of government.  Our team works closely with individuals and groups throughout our nation’s largest and most diverse state.  We have successfully shaped public discourse, influenced decision makers, and helped our clients achieve success.

Energy and environmental issues are some of the most challenging and complex issues facing businesses and government today.  California’s regulatory and legislative mandates in the areas of air, water and land issues make working in the state more challenging than anywhere else in the country.  With one of the nation’s largest energy and environmental public affairs practices, Cerrell Associates assists clients with community outreach, government relations, media relations and corporate communications needs for projects and companies focused in the energy and environmental sector.

Our efforts help obtain approval for new projects, remediate contaminated sites and position clients as environmental leaders for the 21^st Century.  As California’s senior public affairs firm, we have worked on the most pressing environmental issues for more than 40 years.
