CLIENT:
Asian Americans Advancing JusticeImmigrant Justice Advocates is a campaign to make the US Deferred Action Program more approachable and more accessible to undocumented youths in America.

 

STRATEGY:
According to organizers in the field, there are two main obstacles facing undocumented youths: one is the stigma of being an “illegal” student, the other is the feeling of insecurity registering with the government. The solution: a brand that engages with students in an approachable away, but also emulates safety, security and professionalism, and a program that engages peers and educates teachers and administrators. Immigrant Justice Advocates lays a cool foundation for both registered and unregistered students. It utilizes very complicated government regulations and paperwork designed for optimum simplicity and legibility in Chinese, Spanish, English and Filipino.

A Comfortable Place Between Style and Security

Strategy for IJA needed to cover a lot of benchmarks that don’t otherwise normally overlap; It needed a look that was fresh and trustworthy (because you can’t trick kids, if you try they will see right through you) but it also needed a typographic strategy that could be applied to complicated legal documents and federal guidelines.
