VIA: Voice Into Action

VIA stands for Voice Into Action. VIA is an assessment branding campaign that communicates one clear message: We heard your voice and are making changes. This brand allows us to quickly communicate with our stakeholders that we have heard their voice, share key data points, share data-driven changes, and continue to encourage our stakeholders to share their perspectives.

Once an assessment and action plan are completed, key learning points and action items are distributed in various formats (electronic bulletin boards, newsletters, post cards, flyers, etc.) to individuals who provided data or feedback and to relevant stakeholders. This campaign contributes to our commitment to following the assessment cycle and maintaining transparency with results.
