Lane County Violence Prevention Coalition

Project Overview

The Lane County Violence Prevention Coalition brings together organizations, resources, and community members to advance safety and equity across Lane County.

The Challenge

LCVPC came to us with no existing web presence — no domain, no CMS, no infrastructure of any kind. The coalition needed a central platform to serve both the public and its member organizations: a place to share community resources, post events, facilitate coalition participation, and connect visitors with the right support. The build required thoughtful site architecture, custom content management functionality, and multi-language support to reflect the diverse communities LCVPC serves.

Outcome

We designed and built a new WordPress site anchored by a filterable Prevention Library, a custom resource guide that lets visitors browse and find relevant community programs and services by category. Alongside the library, we built an events calendar with category filters, embedded intake and participation forms, and an About page featuring the coalition’s six core partner organizations.

To serve LCVPC’s linguistically diverse audience, we set up a language switcher supporting Spanish, Chinese, French, Russian, and Vietnamese, among others. We also followed basic accessibility guidelines across the site, pairing language access with a design that more community members can navigate and use. The site launched December 1, 2025, and we set up multiple staff members and partner organization contacts as WordPress Editors. We provided video training for ongoing resource management and helped with Mailchimp domain authentication after launch to support the coalition’s email outreach.
