BACKGROUND:
The Sustainability Department (Department) consists of different program areas to help the County both fight against and prepare for climate change, ensure clean energy, water, and air, and conserve resources for future generations through waste reduction.
These programs all interface extensively with the public, with regional partners, and with other jurisdictions to fulfill their missions. Deploying strategically designed, culturally appropriate communications campaigns and messaging materials is critical for transforming complex ideas into compelling messages and easy-to-understand graphics. This approach drives engagement while building trust and credibility. These services elevate the quality of the Department's materials and programs, enhancing engagement across our diverse communication platforms and audiences.
In December 2023, the Department issued a Request for Proposals for on-call communications and marketing strategy and graphic design services.

Good Stuff Partners LLC was determined by the RFP evaluation committee to provide the best value to the County and has been selected as the vendor for these services.
