Then-Governor Mario Cuomo with ANCA founder Roger Tubby.

Are you an organization or municipality that would like to see vibrant communities and strong local economies in Northern New York State?

ANCA reaches across the entire Adirondack North Country at  a time when rural advocacy and innovative support is critically needed for the region.

In the words of our founding director Roger Tubby:

“We need a far bigger job of promotion than ever before.  We need to cooperate with other Adirondack communities because we cannot afford to do an effective job alone.”

Our partners are critical in helping to realize our vision. ANCA collaborates with technical, business, local government, non-profit and/or university partners in each of its programs. ANCA’s key strengths – deep and long-standing networks into communities across the region; excellent project management skills; long history of successful grant procurement; ability to facilitate collaboration – are augmented by the expertise of our partners.

We invite organizations interested in collaborating or becoming ANCA members to contact us.
