- Abstract
- To understand how organizations spread campaign messages, which directly relates to the theory of agenda building, a communication audit of the Heart Truth campaign and its Red Dress symbol was conducted. Through document analysis of campaign materials and interviews with campaign planners, an in-depth examination of the campaign’s planning, strategies, tactics, executions, challenges, and successes are presented. Discussion of these elements as well as a SWOT analysis reveals the agenda-building strategies that were most successful for this campaign, which include awareness events, partnership building, grassroots outreach, and media outreach. The campaign audit concludes with a set of recommendations for moving forward with the campaign, and describes how this modernday campaign is an excellent model of agenda building that other groups can emulate.
