Current Challenges
Problem Visualization Placeholder
The information architecture is difficult to navigate.
Our current navigation system has 8 sub-menu's along with 40+ pages throughout the entire site.
Problem Visualization Placeholder
Pages are full of content with no visual hierarchy.
Each page on the site is loaded with information that makes it hard for users to digest or understand what is being displayed to them. It's difficult to find the information you're looking for.
Problem Visualization Placeholder
What does this organization do again?
On the home page alone, they are very vague on their company mission how they help foster care in youth, and where they can access their resources.
Problem Visualization Placeholder
A broken web platform + financial payment system.
They are managing 3 different financial platforms for 3 different initiatives within the company. As their current web platform, they are using WordPress, but with so much content on each page throughout the website (huge blocks of text, high-quality images, etc.), it left their website to have very slow loading times.
The Solution
A website revamp with a clear mission statement, easy access to resources, and housing portal.
