NYFI works to include former foster youth voices in important policy discussions and legislative work. They believe that improving the standard of child welfare will have an exponentially positive impact on other social issues such as food insecurity, homelessness, and unemployment. They needed a new website that would allow them to create a scalable and sustainable brand for future statewide and regional chapters.

THE CHALLENGE

NFYI is the only foster youth advocacy organization to work with Congress, but they had communication overload on their website. They needed to create more brand clarity so visitors did not think they were a direct service provider, and knew exactly how to interact with their brand.

“I don’t think we would have gotten this far without their leadership and insight.”

THE RESULT

Playing off of the bold, overlapping colors in their logo, we created a funky, bright style for NFYI’s website. We wanted it to feel vibrant, youthful, and tell their story with honor and confidence.

NFYI needed to present themselves as a national organization, but also to allow space for their regional chapters. We created unique page templates for each regional chapter, allowing them to scale with future growth.

"Brave Factor has a lot of knowledge, so be willing to listen to their advice. They’ve brought up a lot of issues along the way, including things that we hadn’t thought about at all because we didn’t know better."
