Communications Handbook

Communications Handbook (PDF - updated April 2017)

This handbook offers both an overview of how divisions can optimize their activities through strategic communications practices and provides some key tools to support common communications activities.

While the philosophy around effective communications remains the same for all divisions, the particular tactics chosen will vary depending on each division’s priorities and the evolution of the organization. Please contact the provincial Divisions communications team with any questions.

The handbook includes information on:

  • About communications
  • Planning for communications success
  • Communications in action
  • Branding
  • Division messages
  • Communications plan template
  • Sample media materials

The Divisions of Family Practice acknowledge that we work on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of many different Indigenous Nations throughout British Columbia.

Acknowledging that we are on the traditional territories of Indigenous communities is an expression of cultural humility and involves recognizing our duty and desire to support the provision of culturally safe care to First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people in BC.
