YOUTH CENTER

ABOUT PRO DEO YOUTH CENTER

Pro Deo Youth Center serves teens 9th-12th grade. Pro Deo's mission is to build relationships to empower teens in a safe and inclusive environment.

MY Role

I played an instrumental role in the communications and marketing efforts for Pro Deo throughout the planning and launch of their capital campaign to construct a new building to better serve at-risk teens in the community. My work has included producing a mini-documentary on a major campaign gift, writing and coordinating press releases, designing the case statement, recreating the logo design, and designing and developing a new-and-improved website. I have also created multiple videos featuring the city’s mayor, the school district’s superintendent, and many other local leaders.

MENTAL HEALTH KC CONFERENCE

ABOUT MHKCC

The Mental Health KC Conference (MHKCC) focuses on bringing mental health awareness and education to anyone in the Kansas City area interested in breaking the stigma of mental health and working toward real change. In addition to community health, mental health, and social service workers, the conference provides vital information to business and human resources leaders and the general public.

MY Role

My role working with the Mental Health KC Conference for two consecutive years was to help prepare and run the Media Room throughout the day of the conference, facilitating speakers in and out of the room on a tight schedule. I set up and manned the second camera and main audio equipment, then edited and produced the final video segments to be distributed to the speakers and their associated organizations for use on websites and social media.

MY WORK

Below is a selection of final video pieces from the conference - including one of Dr. Bruce Perry, a subject matter expert on child maltreatment, children's mental health, and neurodevelopment. Across both years, there were more than 100 completed video segments.
