Red Banyan CEO Evan Nierman Leads High-Stakes Communications Workshop at NASDDDS Annual Conference
At the NASDDDS Directors Forum and Annual Conference in Chicago, Nierman gave state I/DD agency leaders the tools to earn public trust, field media inquiries and make the case for essential services to policymakers.
Chicago, IL, United States, 13th Nov 2026 – Evan Nierman, founder and CEO of reputation management firm Red Banyan led an interactive workshop for state disability services leaders at the National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services (NASDDDS) Directors Forum and Annual Conference. Held Nov. 4 at the Marriott Marquis Chicago, “Navigating High-Stakes Communications” gave state agency directors practical tools to make a compelling case for the services they provide, earn public trust, engage with policymakers and prevent or respond to reputational risks.
The conference drew hundreds of attendees, from leaders of state intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) agencies nationwide, to advocates and the health plans, technology companies, consulting firms and service providers that support state systems. It opened Nov. 3 with a keynote from Connor Tomlinson, the neurodiversity advocate known for Netflix’s Love on the Spectrum, and his mother, Lise Menard Smith. Earlier this year, Tomlinson’s testimony at the Georgia Capitol helped pass Rio’s Law, which requires training for first responders on interacting with people with autism.
Nierman’s session came the day after Election Day, as many agencies prepare to introduce their work to newly elected officials who may bring different budget priorities into office. Tailored to the challenges facing public agency leaders, the workshop drew on Red Banyan’s Powering Reputation model and Press The Truth® philosophy.
In hands-on exercises, Nierman took the room through the communications life cycle behind that model: building brand trust, planning ahead to prevent crises, and responding quickly to misinformation. Attendees crafted core messages and a communications loop to carry them, worked out who speaks and who needs to know first when a crisis hits, and practiced explaining essential services to policymakers, reporters and the public with messaging that resonates. The workshop also featured live media training, giving volunteers practice handling tough questions in mock interviews.
Attendees were provided with a specialized communications toolkit, developed for NASDDDS by Red Banyan earlier this year, which assists member agencies with making the case for community-based care, fielding press inquiries, establishing internal communications protocols and engaging with political officials.
“The leaders in that room run systems that allow people with disabilities to live full lives in their own communities, and that work deserves to be understood and defended,” said Nierman. “In order to protect essential services, you have to press the truth, which means getting accurate information out fast and making the value of your work impossible to ignore.”
As public agencies face a 24/7 news cycle and political change, strong communications skills are becoming as essential to protecting disability services as the policy work behind them. State agencies and disability service organizations looking to strengthen media readiness, prepare leaders for public scrutiny or develop a crisis prevention plan can reach Red Banyan at redbanyan.com.

United States, 13th Nov 2026 – Wire Harness Manufacturer, a trusted OEM-focused maker of custom wire harnesses and cable assemblies, has announced the custom wire harness production it offers to OEM equipment buyers. According to the company, each harness is built around the customer’s connectors, routing and production requirements. Customers can start a project by sharing a drawing, a bill of materials or a sample.
The company offers three types of work: custom wire harnesses, overmolded assemblies, and application-specific assemblies that provide power and signal connections matched to the equipment and its installation space. Every assembly is built to the agreed specification, the company notes.
Assemblies Built Around the Customer’s Connectors
A wire harness groups the wires, connectors and protective coverings that join parts of a machine into a single assembly, so that it can be fitted as one unit. Wire Harness Manufacturer says that customers can specify the connector part numbers they want, or approve alternatives. Substitutions of connectors or materials are reviewed against the needs of the application, the company said.
“Equipment makers usually arrive with a connector list and a routing picture, and the harness is built around both,” said Hommer Zhao, Founder and General Manager of Wire Harness Manufacturer. “Agreeing the details first keeps the build tied to what the equipment needs, and it gives the buyer a clear view of the assembly before any parts are made.”
Protection and routing are matched to the installation. The company lists sleeving and overmolding among its options, and describes overmolded assemblies as giving protection and strain relief at connection points. Inspection checks and acceptance criteria are agreed before production starts, rather than after parts are built, the company states.
How a Project Moves From Brief to Production
The company describes a four step process. The customer first shares a brief that describes the equipment and the connection needed. The components, materials and routing are then aligned, and a sample is reviewed for fit and function. Production starts once the specification and the inspection plan are approved.
Samples take 3 to 4 weeks and mass production takes 4 to 5 weeks, according to the company, and both are confirmed against the agreed specification when a quote is issued. Quantity and lead time depend on design complexity, component availability, tooling and order volume.
Testing, Reports and Sectors Served
Wire Harness Manufacturer states that continuity testing and tensile testing can be discussed for each assembly, with the electrical checks and mechanical test requirements set for the connections involved. Production inspection reports are available on request, and reporting requirements can be included in the brief. A non-disclosure agreement can be arranged before confidential drawings or files are shared.
The company serves five sectors. Industrial equipment work covers control, sensor and equipment wiring, and robotics and automation work covers connections around moving equipment. Automotive and mobility and energy systems are also served, and medical equipment is covered with requirements described as subject to technical review.
The company says that the environment shapes every specification and asks customers to define four areas in a project brief: movement, exposure, installation space and electrical requirements. Movement covers bending, rotation and travel, while exposure covers temperature, moisture and chemicals. Defining these areas at the brief stage lets the specification reflect the conditions the harness will meet.
Looking Ahead
Wire Harness Manufacturer plans to keep the same sequence of brief, alignment, sample and production for the projects it takes on.
“The aim is for each buyer to know the connector list, the routing and the inspection plan before production starts,” said Zhao. “How each project develops from there depends on the application the buyer describes. Keeping the sequence consistent means a buyer can see what to expect from the first brief through to the finished assembly.”

- Police officer Christopher Backus explains why summer shifts the kind of calls small Washington departments see, and why that shift deserves more attention than it gets.
A Season That Changes the Call Log
Olympia, Washington, November 13, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Christopher Backus has worked for departments across Washington, including Shelton, Tukwila, Tenino, and Grand Coulee. He has also worked as a guard for the Washington Department of Corrections and a jailer for Mason County. Across those roles, he has noticed a pattern that repeats every year: the call volume does not just rise in summer, it changes shape.
Winter calls in a small town tend to follow a familiar rhythm. Summer brings more people outdoors, more vehicles on back roads, more boats on the water, and more visitors who do not know the terrain. For an officer, that means more calls that do not look like the ones from January.
“The type of call changes as much as the number,” Backus says. “A welfare check near a lake in July is a different situation than the same call in a neighborhood in December. You’re often working farther from help, with less information about who you’re dealing with.”
Small Departments Feel It First
Grand Coulee and Tenino are not large cities. Departments that size often run lean, with officers covering wide areas alone. Backus says that reality becomes more visible in summer, when outdoor recreation brings in people who do not live in the area and are not easy to reach quickly if something goes wrong.
“You might get a call about someone overdue from a hike, or a disturbance at a campground, somewhere outside the area you patrol every day,” he says. “You don’t have the same local knowledge you’d have on a normal residential call. That’s where training on how to assess a scene matters more than people realize.”
He is careful not to frame this as something departments are failing to handle. It is simply a feature of the season that smaller agencies plan around.
Where Personal Experience Helps
Backus spends his own time off camping, hiking, and fly fishing in Montana. He says that time outdoors has shaped how he thinks about the calls that come in during the warmer months.
“When you’ve spent a night in a tent or hiked a trail yourself, you understand what can go wrong out there,” he says. “You know how fast weather changes, how easy it is to lose track of time, how different a trail looks after dark. That helps you read a call differently than if you’d only ever seen the area from a patrol car.”
He says this kind of familiarity does not replace training, but it adds context that makes training easier to apply. An officer who already understands the terrain, the gear, and the habits of people who camp or fish is better positioned to figure out what a call actually needs.
What He Tells Newer Officers
Backus is direct with newer officers about the seasonal shift. He tells them not to assume a summer call will look like the version they trained for in a classroom.
“A lot of training scenarios are built around a town, a building, a street,” he says. “Summer calls are more likely to happen somewhere without an address. You have to be comfortable working without the usual landmarks.”
He also points out that summer often means fewer officers available at once, since vacation schedules overlap with the busiest months. That combination, more unpredictable calls and a thinner shift, is part of why he treats seasonal planning as something worth taking seriously rather than something to react to after it starts.
“It’s not a complicated idea,” Backus says. “The job doesn’t stay the same all year. If you plan like it does, you’ll be caught off guard every June.”
About Christopher Backus
Christopher Backus is a police officer based in Olympia, Washington. His law enforcement career includes work with the Washington Department of Corrections, Shelton Police Department, Mason County Jail, Tukwila Police Department, Tenino Police Department, and Grand Coulee Police Department. He holds an AA from South Puget Sound Community College and a BA in Criminal Justice with a minor in psychology from Saint Martin’s University. Outside of work, he spends his time camping, hiking, playing softball, and fly fishing in Montana.
