Project: Office of Firearm Violence Prevention Strategic Roadmap

Client: Illinois Department of Human Services

Firearm violence is a multifaceted challenge that requires a public health approach to stop the cycles of violence in disproportionately impacted communities. The Reimagine Public Safety Act, which was passed by the Illinois General Assembly in 2021, resulted in the creation of the State of Illinois’ Office of Firearm Violence Prevention (OFVP). We developed a short-term strategic roadmap to position the Office of Firearms Violence Prevention to expeditiously and thoughtfully administer $250 million in grants to communities across Chicago and other municipalities experiencing the highest levels of violence. Now, the Office of Firearm Violence Prevention has an aligned organizational model and project management structures to execute the priorities of the Reimagine Public Safety Act.

HALT CREATIVE IS AN AWARD-WINNING, WOMAN-OWNED AGENCY FOUNDED IN 2017.

While many think that design should blend seamlessly into everyday life, we believe that good design cuts the noise of a busy world and creates an experience your audience can’t help but stop and appreciate.

A well-told story sparks the imagination, excites the mind, and inspires action. Often the doorway to that story is a visual design that catches the attention of your customers, clients, and partners.

We combine imagery, color, composition, and text to tell your story as passionately and effectively as possible.

HALT, because good design should stop you in your tracks.
