Case Study
#ThisIsParkland

CHALLENGE

After providing crisis communications services to the City of Parkland following the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in 2018, we turned our attention to aiding the community in the healing process.

CORE STRATEGY POINTS

• Put the community first
• Don’t fast forward or interrupt the healing process
• Remind residents that the City of Parkland is more than just a place where tragedy struck

THE SOLUTION

• With the intention of highlighting what makes Parkland special, we developed the #ThisIsParkland campaign.
• Our team visited the parks and neighborhoods to capture photos of residents experiencing the City’s many amenities and beautiful landscapes.
• We launched the campaign on Instagram and invited every resident to take pride in their city, their home.
