Second Responders: The Variable for Trauma Intervention Programs, Inc.
When tragedy strikes, first responders save lives. But when they leave, another kind of help is needed. For nearly 40 years, Trauma Intervention Programs (TIP) volunteers have shown up to provide emotional first aid to those left behind — the survivors, the families, the ones in shock and grief.
With support from SixDegrees.org, Advertising Week, and The Variable, TIP is launching its first national campaign: Second Responders. Anchored by the message “Emotional Rescue Deserves a Response,” the campaign calls on all of us to show up — to care, to listen, and to be there when it matters most.
“Working on a client like TIP does something amazing for our team… working on a brand with purpose is like a balm to the soul.” — Matt Cook, Chief Creative Officer, The Variable
