Strategic Communication & Tailoring
How do you reach your audience and convey your message? The HCRC can help. Strategic communication and tailoring are effective approaches that help tell people not what to think, but more frequently, what to think about. This method is rooted in theory-driven communication and continues to be a proven strategy for intrinsic change in behaviors.
