Expression of Interest (EOI): Website Redesign for Alisa's Wish Child and Youth Advocacy Centre
-
Introduction: Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community Services invites expressions of interest for the redesign of our Alisa's Wish Child and Advocacy Centre website. As a child and youth advocacy center committed to providing support and resources to vulnerable children and families, we recognize the importance of having an engaging and user-friendly online presence to effectively communicate our mission, services, and impact to our community and stakeholders.
-
Background: Alisa's Wish Child and Advocacy Center, founded in 2013, has been serving the community for 11 years. We offer services aimed at supporting children, youth, and their non-offending family members who have experienced trauma, abuse, and neglect. Our current website, while informative, lacks modern design elements, intuitive navigation, and mobile responsiveness.
-
Objectives: The primary objectives of the website redesign project are:

To create a visually appealing, modern, and professional website design that reflects our organization's mission and values.
To improve user experience (UX) and accessibility to ensure all visitors can easily navigate and find relevant information, resources, and supports.
To integrate multimedia elements such as videos, images, and testimonials to effectively communicate our impact and engage with our audience.
To optimize the website for search engines (SEO) to increase visibility and reach within our target audience.
To ensure the website is fully responsive across all devices, including desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

-
Scope of Work: The scope of work for the website redesign project includes, but is not limited to, the following tasks:

Conducting an initial assessment of our current website, including strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement.
Developing a comprehensive website design proposal incorporating modern design trends, branding guidelines, and user experience best practices.
Creating wireframes and mockups for key website pages, including the homepage, about us, programs/services, resources, contact us, and donation pages.
Implementing the chosen design using responsive web development techniques to ensure compatibility across various devices and browsers.
Integrating multimedia elements, including videos, images, and social media feeds, to enhance engagement and storytelling.
Implementing SEO best practices, including keyword optimization, meta tags, and site structure improvements, to improve search engine visibility.
Providing training and documentation for our staff to manage and update the website content using a userfriendly content management system (CMS).
Conducting user testing and quality assurance to ensure the website meets usability standards and resolves any bugs or issues before launch.
