Communication Request

Communication Request
Do you have an event or program you would like shared? Please complete the form below so we can determine how to best support your team's communication needs. If you have questions, contact Debbie at (630) 355-2522.

Before you make a communication request, here are some guidelines when it comes to communications.
- Simple Facts - figure out who, what, where, when, why and how so the audience doesn't have to.
- Clear Communication - Avoid insider-language and acronyms so everyone understands what is being said.
- If there is a sign-up and or fee, be sure to explain how they do that.
- Who is the target audience - children, teens, adults, seniors, families.
- Keep it short - the Communications Team will help edit it down if necessary.
- Deadline for Weekly Connection is noon on Tuesdays.
