Heron agency has been such a great partner in the short amount of time we have worked with them at The Theatre School at DePaul University (we started in April of 2026). They heard our school's needs and created a comprehensive plan that has put us on an accelerated path to many of our goals. I look forward to the continuing partnership and appreciate how attentive they have been to our needs.
