Proof that story can become strategy.

PCA designed and produced the Hartwell Back-to-School Bash as the activation deliverable for JP Morgan Chase's community sponsorship. Held at Hartwell Elementary on August 13, 2026, the program brought students, families, and Chase staff into the same room for a day of resource distribution, financial literacy programming, and storytelling that introduced families to the people behind the bank.

The activation was built to do what most check-passing sponsorships cannot: produce an ongoing relationship between a national brand and a hyper-local community.

PCA delivered the full storytelling and activation package for Health Expo 2026, the Center for Closing the Health Gap's flagship public-facing event at Washington Park in Cincinnati. The "Picture Yourself in the Movement" activation invited attendees to literally see themselves inside the work, connecting public health messaging to personal identity in real time.

PCA also wrote and produced all radio commercial copy across Urban One stations WIZF, WDBZ, and WOSL, and Shonda hosted the Main Stage, anchoring the program in front of thousands.

The Future Story Lab Navigator cohort ran for seven weeks at Hartwell School in partnership with Cincinnati Public Schools. PCA designed the curriculum, recruited the speakers, built the digital passport infrastructure, and produced every session. Students worked through identity, voice, and future-facing career exposure with leaders they would not otherwise have met.

The speaker roster included Vice Mayor Jan Michelle Lemon Kearney, Shannel Heath (VP at Chase), celebrity fashion designer Kellie, and Kailah Ware. The program was anchored by a Supabase-backed digital passport at student.parkscollective.org and navigator.parkscollective.org.

The Rest in Motion cohort is Season 2 of the Sis, How Is Your Heart? movement. PCA architected the program, built the full digital infrastructure on Supabase with five deployed Edge Functions and pg_cron-scheduled email automation through Resend, and partnered with Coach Ashley Terry of Pure & Simple Fitness and Salimah Abdul-Hakim of Her Tribe Collective.

The cohort culminates in The Crossing, a gathering set for June 27, 2026, that translates online programming into a real-room moment of release.

PCA developed and deployed a three-tier learning ecosystem teaching the T.R.O.P. Method (Tone & Posture, Role Assignment, Override Defaults, Produce & Verify) as a culturally fluent framework for AI literacy. The ecosystem includes a presentation site, a self-guided lab, and a facilitated workshop, each architected for a different learner.

The methodology was submitted to Black Tech Week 2026 with a May 15 notification window. Built end-to-end including positioning, naming, methodology, three deployed sites, and the facilitator playbook.
