MARKETING the CPS American Indian Education Program

Chantay Moore, Project Coordinator February 21, 2018 Festival of Stories- Annual Public Forum

SLIDE 11
  • Our #1 administrative goal is to increase outreach and find

families to serve, while being a reliable and credible resource on Native American Indian education in the Chicagoland area

  • In 2017, we took a major change in the way we market the

program

  • Rebranding of program name and logo from ‘T7’ aka ‘Title VII’ to CPS

American Indian Education Program

  • Update to look of website and layout of information
  • Revitalization of Facebook page
  • Created a Youtube account
  • Weekly email Newsletter campaign
  • Quarterly print newsletter

Marketing increases program awareness

  • The name ‘T7’ was not recognizable and

did not correlate to anything to an “outsider”…..especially with CPS administrators or to families we have yet to work with

  • Initially identified to represent the Office of

Education Title VII federal grant funding that the program received

Rebranding

12

  • By not using ‘T7’, the program is related

more to Chicago Public Schools/CPS

  • No longer represents the funding source,

which recently changed to Title VI

  • More appropriate to use in conversation
  • Current challenge is getting families to

address the program by name vs. ‘T7’
