Sharing success stories from recent sites is a powerful way to show program impact — and raise awareness, funding, and interest for future LENA Grow cohorts! |
 |
Here are some tips to help you share your outcomes throughout your community and beyond:
|
|
Share Impact Reports. Highlight positive results to keep center directors engaged and excited. |
|
|
Find your LENA Grow ambassadors. Connect with center directors, coaches, and community partners who can share your program within their networks. |
|
|
Collect stories and photos. Gather examples from directors, coaches, and teachers. Pair these with your program data to tell a compelling impact story for stakeholders, funders, and new sites and teachers. Visit Craft Your Success Story for ideas, tips, and customizable templates. |
|
|
Grow your audience. Look for opportunities to share your story more broadly — through conference presentations, social media posts, or your organization’s website. |
From the Field
Partners regularly promote the opportunity to use LENA Grow through their networks via websites, news features, interviews, and social media posts. Scroll through for effective examples you can adapt for your own program.
|
Word of mouth is one of the most effective recruitment tools! After completing a cohort, ask participating programs to help spread the word and share their stories. Visit this LENA Library article to learn more about using stories and social media to promote LENA Grow in your community. |
