Client voices

Ethical Narrative has been an exceptional partner in bringing our TNT Open Mind Insights series to life. Their team operates with a high level of professionalism, consistently delivering quality work with a strong “can-do” mindset. From planning through production, they are reliable, collaborative, and solutions-oriented, ensuring a seamless process. I truly value their partnership and the way they’ve helped elevate TNT’s storytelling and thought leadership in behavioral health.

"FCUSD had a vision for making each school in Rancho
Cordova the center of wellness for their students and families, but it wasn't until Ethical Narrative was hired to tell our story that staff, district leaders, families and community leaders unfamiliar with Community Schools were able to really see and understand the vision. We submitted the Ethical Narrative video of our vision with our grant application and 6 of our 7 schools received 7.6 million in funding for the next 5 years!"

"The Ethical Narrative team created powerful and impactful stories that highlighted the heroic work of our Mental Health Champions. They also brought a level of care and professionalism to the project that reflects their core ethical storytelling values. Those values align with our organization, so it was a truly rewarding partnership.

Director of Strategic Partnerships, Steinberg Institute
“Ethical Narrative is an exemplary company, and one of the only photo or video organizations we've come across that
prioritizes ethics and the well-being of their video participants, which highly aligns with our values. While we had a vast amount of time and content to fit into a five minute video, Autumn and her team worked wonders—even under a tight deadline—to create a short film that was compelling as it highlighted the health center and our community's story. When we premiered the video at our gala, you could visibly see the emotional impact on our audience, and it helped us surpass our in-person fundraising goal that night. We recommend Ethical Narrative to any organization wanting to tell their story ethically and compassionately."
