National WIC Association: National Recruitment and Retention Campaign
The National WIC Association (NWA) partnered with approximately 45 states, including North Carolina, to support the development of a new National Recruitment and Retention Campaign. This campaign is a three-year, multi-platform effort designed to:
- Recruit new WIC participants,
- Retain current participants, and
- Improve the perception of the WIC program
NWA worked with marketing experts to conduct formative research with WIC families from several states. Based on these findings, a new national WIC brand identity was developed and shared, with supporting visuals and messaging.
The campaign will continue through the end of 2018. Please contact Natalie Mulloy for more information.
National Recruitment and Retention Campaign Website
NWA launched an extensive digital print and advertising campaign. The new signupwic.com website drives potential participants to their nearest agency. Local Agencies can keep their information on the website current by submitting a signupwic.com update form.
Recruitment and Retention Campaign Online Community
Resources for implementing the new WIC logo and brand are available through an online community. Local Agencies can adapt these materials to meet their needs. The Recruitment and Retention Campaign Online Community includes:
- Artwork and Templates
- Brand Guidelines
- Messaging Toolkit
- State and Local Agency Logos
- Discussion Board
Log in to the National WIC Association website to access the online community. If you do not have an account, you must create one. For detailed instructions on how to access the online community, see the Recruitment and Retention Resource Center Document.
