About EARLY PR

Where purpose
meets power.

Guided by the Black queer feminist lens

For too long, diverse communities have gone unheard, unreached, and underrepresented. Let’s change that.

At EARLY PR, we help socially conscious brands and organizations connect with their audiences and make a real difference.

Our team of award-winning BIPOC creatives, led by a Black woman, brings lived experience and strategic expertise to every project. Since 2019, we've led campaigns for federal agencies, universities, public health departments, community developers and non-profits across the country.

Amber Hansen - Health Care Without Harm
“
EARLY PR gave us the hands-on care that our organization and our project needed. Their attention to detail, understanding of our needs, and flexibility throughout the brand development process really set them apart. They gave us insightful guidance and helped us make the right decisions as we worked toward developing our branding and website.
Justice Rajee - Williams and Russell CDC
“
As a team that does not have a marketing budget and as people who are social workers and don’t know the marketing world, it was important to work with people who could guide us through an unfamiliar process and unknown terminology. And, if you want personal attention, patient guidance, and an agency that takes the time to figure out your needs, then EPR is your agency
Miles Brown - Columbus Public Health
“
