How Engagements Take Shape in Whittier
Multi-year community engagement in Whittier
A regional health system asked RFC to design a sustained Whittier engagement focused on historic preservation. We built an audience model from Whittier household and organizational data, structured a multi-channel precision mail programs program, and embedded a field cadence that turned a six-month launch into a three-year compounding partnership with local conveners. The program's reach and depth grew every renewal cycle.
Coalition-anchored outreach across Los Angeles County
A coalition of Los Angeles County non-profits engaged RFC to coordinate a Whittier-anchored advisory services push. Rather than running parallel programs, we mapped the existing civic infrastructure, brokered shared messaging, and produced a single in-language mail and field deployment that the coalition members executed in concert. Cost per qualified contact dropped materially; partner satisfaction stayed high through the engagement.
