Awareness and Digital Advertising Campaign

Video Player

LAI Video partnered with RAINN to create a PSA campaign about intervention, survivor support, and the everyday courage it takes to care. “Strength to Care” is built around a simple idea: caring is not passive. It asks something of you.

The campaign follows a series of familiar situations: a teen using social media to show solidarity, a man noticing a young person withdraw at a family gathering, a date checking in when something feels off, a coworker refusing to let harmful behavior slide. Each moment is small. Each choice matters.

The answer was a spot grounded in behavior people recognize instantly. Not theory. Not awareness language. Action.

Challenge

Translating Empathy Into Everyday Moments

RAINN needed a campaign that could speak to a wide audience without sounding broad, vague, or institutional. The message had to land with emotional force, but it also had to stay usable. Too soft, and it disappears. Too heavy, and people shut down.

The real challenge was: how do you show care as something active?

The campaign had to make that visible in ordinary life. A glance. A pause. A decision to say something. A decision to stay.

Clear Creative, Targeted Distribution

The strategy had two jobs: make the message understandable, and make sure it reached the right people. Animation gave the message a stronger structure, while the release plan made sure it reached the people most likely to need it. That distribution strategy included:

  • A three-month OTT campaign
  • Video pre-roll placements
  • CTV placements

The targeting stayed focused on higher-risk populations across priority markets, with weekly optimization to keep the campaign responsive by audience and location.

Record Results

The campaign delivered strong awareness, high completion rates, and useful message insights, including:

  • 400,000 total impressions
  • 76,000 total minutes watched
  • 73% overall completion rate
  • 99% completion rates on OTT and CTV

The campaign also outperformed its original media target and gave the team a clearer read on what messaging resonated most. The advocacy-focused version performed slightly better overall, especially among Spanish-speaking audiences.
