We kicked off our fourth annual session of The Purpose PRogram on May 18. This is SCC’s signature pro bono service designed to help mission-driven organizations in Washington, D.C. metropolitan area tell their stories. Over the next six months, SCC staff will mentor representatives from three organizations on how to build a communication strategy and implement best practices to spread the word about the important work they do for our local community.
We sent out our first call for applications in late 2019, and the pandemic forced previous sessions to take place via video calls. Now, we are excited to bring our participants to SCC’s new HQ in the Herald Building in Washington, DC.
We look forward to working with the 2023 class:
