Case Studies: Issues and Crisis Management In Public Relations 

These case studies highlight our expertise in navigating complex situations and guiding organizations through challenging transitions. Our team excels in crisis issues and reputation management, making sure we communicate effectively and use proactive strategies that rebuild public trust. 

We led earned media and issues management for the nationwide COVID-19 response for two presidential administrations. Research conducted before, during and after the campaign informed media strategies. It led to the selection of target markets and message refinement.


We have led multiple public crisis responses to federal investigations. These include whistleblower complaints and accusations of fraud, malfeasance, and/or hostile work environments involving several well-known nonprofit organizations. All efforts share the same goal of staying out of the news spotlight.


A nonprofit was facing calls from private funders to take a national position on a hot-button political issue, which would have put their federal grants at risk. TRG worked closely with leadership to develop an issues management strategy to engage donors, mitigate concerns and shore up funding.


We introduced a new strategic direction for a health system that was acquiring another organization whose employees were not supportive of the change.


We managed issues for a national professional licensing board that was being challenged on its exam pass rate. Our efforts resulted in widely publicizing the exam development process and highlighting successful efforts to improve the exam content.
