"Staiger | Vitelli and Associates delivered just what we needed. They were trusted strategic partners and excellent coaches as we assessed our political landscape and communicated with the community. They were responsive to our needs, pushing us forward when we needed a push and patient when we needed to slow down."
-Chris Dettling, AbleLight Village
