Delaware's "Are you a Caregiver Campaign"

The Division of Services for Aging and Adults with Physical Disabilities (DSAAPD) launched a marketing campaign to assist caregivers to self-identify themselves as caregivers. The ads used a “If they turn to you, you can turn to us” tagline to help them identify the everyday tasks that they might do as a caregiver and let them know there is support to help them. Delaware Health and Social Services provided a press release when this campaign launched over a year ago.

Themes were:

Fix Meals
Give Rides
Offer Support
Spend Time
Steady Hand

There were local radio, tv, print and Facebook Carousel ads that gave a description of a caregiver “task” and connected with a phone number to the Aging and Disability Resource Center to point the caregivers to information and referral services. The following are the Facebook Carousel images and the print ads that were used.
