The U.S. Capitol Police

Partnering with Voya Financial ($524B AUM), VIVO spearheaded the "MYATL: Plan with a Purpose" brand to lead a high-stakes retirement transition for the City of Atlanta’s diverse workforce. This culturally resonant initiative successfully bridged the gap between complex financial services and employee trust, ensuring a seamless and empowered transition for thousands of public servants.

The Challenge

VIVO embarked on a mission to revitalize the organization’s tarnished brand image.
