Raising the media coverage bar for an organization tackling an issue that most wish would just go away.

We hit the ground running with MHAAO after they’d received some rather unjust media coverage for a program they were managing to help fight Portland’s growing drug problem and related social issues. Within a few months, we were well on our way to not only changing the narrative for the original issue, but we’d helped manage numerous TV stories, radio interviews and a front page Sunday Oregonian feature.

All eyes are on how Portland is trying to eradicate a complex social challenge. We’re helping to put MHAAO at the forefront of creative and street-smart solutions.

Changing lives for children with learning challenges.

One in five children has a learning or attention issue that makes school difficult. Without the right support, they become discouraged and may even give up trying. When one child gives up, we all take a step backward.

That’s why The Shadow Project teams with teachers to make school a place where children who learn differently can thrive. Their mission is to make school more accessible and engaging for K-8 students with learning challenges like dyslexia, ADHD, autism and trauma. They accomplish this by helping to foster an education system that normalizes and celebrates learning differences, and supports every student, no matter how they learn.

Helping charter schools thrive.

As the country’s first national financial services provider exclusively focused on charter schools and the students they serve, Charter School Capital, has invested upwards of $2 billion in charter schools across the country, serving more than 1 million students. This impressive trajectory has been covered in regional and national news outlets. Schools served by Charter School Capital’s enrollment marketing team are also supported by Amico.
