About Castling Strategies | Policy & Advocacy Firm
Castling Strategies is a Massachusetts-based policy consulting and advocacy firm that helps nonprofits, businesses, and coalitions turn ambitious climate and energy goals into measurable results. Inspired by the castling move in chess—a decisive maneuver that protects your position while preparing for offense—we design strategies that defend your core values while advancing bold, sustainable progress. Our work spans climate change, energy policy, sustainability, and public affairs, with each engagement grounded in credibility, clarity, and results.
Founded by Cabell Eames, a seasoned campaign strategist and policy advocate, Castling Strategies blends legislative expertise with creative communication. For more than a decade, Cabell has guided statewide nonprofits, advised gubernatorial efforts, and helped shape climate and energy policy at the Massachusetts State House. She is known for translating complex legislation and regulatory language into actionable plans, persuasive narratives, and coalition strategies that move decision-makers.
Castling Strategies works with clients who value substance over slogans. Our consulting process blends policy expertise with strategic foresight, helping organizations identify the levers of influence that matter most. Whether designing a climate campaign, aligning stakeholders, or crafting messaging that wins public trust, we focus on impact—turning strong ideas into strategies that endure long after the headlines fade.
Cabell also brings trusted public visibility. For six years, she has been a regular panelist on WGBH’s Under the Radar: Environmental Roundtable, offering analysis on environmental issues, legislative developments, and strategic advocacy. This blend of policy depth, campaign discipline, and communications clarity defines every project we take on.
