Education Crisis Communications
Castle has extensive experience guiding public and private institutions of all sizes – from K-12 to colleges and universities – through critical and sensitive situations, including highly charged matters around Title IX, racial and diversity issues, discrimination, sexual harassment, employment, data breaches, regulatory investigations, litigation and financial malfeasance. In addition, members of our crisis communications team have previously held in-house positions at educational institutions, bringing with them an invaluable client-side perspective.
We have a keen understanding of the education landscape and the internal and external pressures of today’s highly competitive and complex environment. We always tailor content to your key audiences – students, parents, faculty/staff, alumni, donors, etc. – and we do so in ways that mirror your school’s mission and vision, as well as tone and style.
