“From the inception of ‘Project My Time,’ communications and public education were identified as key components of our work to develop an out-of-school time system in the District. The Hatcher Group has been truly a partner in this work — listening to us, asking questions and crafting strategies to help us achieve our goals. Their expertise in this field, their awareness of nuance, and their unwavering enthusiasm for the work have helped us brand the project, improve internal communications among our partners and raise the visibility of out-of-school time in the eyes of policymakers and the public.”
