CommunicationWorks works actively with clients on a broad array of issues that affect the future of learning in the United States. We have led strategic communications efforts or issue campaigns focused on everything from reducing dropouts to improving the financial sustainability of our education system, from strengthening the teaching profession to increasing academic rigor in high school and student success in college. The firm has helped make significant changes at every level of education, from early childhood education to graduate school. The list below represents a small sample of the issue areas in which we have made major impacts:
