The foundation of the SCI ‘Creative Vision’ is inspired by core American values of self-sufficiency, self-determination, self-reliance, ingenuity, creativity, and disruptive entrepreneurship, walking hand-in-hand with responsibility for self, family, neighborhood, and community.
The rekindling of these enduring American values informs our services, which walk-the-talk for a restorative, regenerative, resilient, and re-localized future for the St. Croix Valley, the nation, and internationally.
From its beginning, SCI has a proven ‘track record’ of creativity, commitment, and accomplishment necessary for a future where ‘getting beyond sustainability’ is the outcome of a capitalistic economy, re-aligned to the integrity and beauty of environmental quality, social equity, and community-scale systems that guarantee intergenerational health and quality of life.
The ‘creative visioning’ of SCI is accomplished through the leadership and collaborative direction of Kelly D. Cain, PhD, Founder / Principal, in concert with the deep commitment of select partners. These SCI partners represent the front-edge of knowledge, skills, expertise, integrity, and passion that bring the ‘right fit’ to the customized needs of every client, and selected as necessary for that purpose.
