Mohonk Consultations
Let's talk it over at Mohonk...
Mohonk Consultations brings together leaders, students, and other engaged people for day-long conferences and half-day forums. These gatherings are often co-sponsored with regional organizations that have a specific expertise relevant to the topic being addressed. Through these events, we foster a deeper understanding of issues from broad and diverse perspectives with the intent of creating new action plans, including collaborations. For more on these collaborations, see Our Impact.
