Celebrating 40 Years: Marketing Toolkit

July 2, 2018

July 1, 2018, marked a major milestone for LRADAC: our 40th anniversary. While much has changed since July 1978, LRADAC is still dedicated and working hard to create and support pathways for prevention and recovery from substance misuse for individuals, families and communities.

For 40 years, our dedicated staff and innovative programs and services have taken a proactive approach to fighting substance misuse in Lexington and Richland schools, businesses and neighborhoods. By reaching, empowering and renewing those struggling with substance use disorders, LRADAC continues to assist in a transformation for these individuals, their friends and families.

We have solidified a marketing plan with key executions throughout the year. Our goal is to integrate the 40th-anniversary look, feel and messaging into LRADAC’s marketing efforts throughout the year for a new creative look to our overall brand.

We want you, the great people of Richland and Lexington Counties, involved in celebrating 40 years of “Improving Lives. Improving Communities.” We invite you to use this communications toolkit to help us promote the campaign. Happy celebrating!
