Challenge

Understand the tensions parents face.

Bring urgency to the need for children (age 3–6) to get caught up on their routine vaccinations. Unfortunately, many American medical institutions at large speak at the Black community, with little regard for how they feel or think.

Goal

Remind parents of the importance of routine vaccines.

Increase the number of true, reflective, and relatable images of Black childhood joy in the media to counteract the images of violence encountered on a daily basis.

Result

Create a targeted campaign based on universal truths.

Covid-19 was extremely taxing on the spirit of the Black community. Simple moments of joy is an act of resistance and self-preservation from the collective trauma the community is facing.

Protect the innocence of childhood.

The focus of the campaign was to reach the public through fun, approachable images of diverse children engaging in their pre-COVID activities and “Play Catch-Up” on all the moments they’ve missed out on.
