The Arkansas Opioid Recovery Partnership (ARORP) and mhp.si have been awarded a silver in the 46th Annual Telly Awards’ Social Impact category for their eight-part online video series, “ReviveAR: Strengthening Communities, Saving Lives, One App Download at a Time,” the organizations announced May 27.
ARORP partnered with national communications firm mhp.si to create the video series, a compelling campaign focused on different aspects of ARORP’s ReviveAR app, which launched in 2024 to provide Arkansans with immediate access to opioid prevention, treatment and recovery resources. The team used a mix of animation, action shots and real-life testimonials to highlight the app’s functionalities.
“Our mhp.si partners understand just how difficult the journey to recovery can be and how important it is to share our state’s important stories and resources,” said ARORP Director Kirk Lane. “We are grateful for their partnership, as well as this exciting recognition.”
The annual Telly Awards showcase the best work created across all screens on behalf of a client, brand or company or self-directed as a creative endeavor. The 2025 Telly Awards received nearly 13,000 entries from across the globe. Other winners included Pixar Animation Studios, Hearst Media, ESPN, LinkedIn, NATO, MTV Entertainment Studios, NASA, the LA Clippers (NBA), Sawhorse Productions and Telemundo. Awardees were chosen by the Telly Awards Judging Council, a membership-based division of the Telly Awards.
ARORP is an initiative of the Arkansas Municipal League and the Association of Arkansas Counties that represents an unprecedented, united front between the representatives of local government to abate the loss of life caused by the opioid epidemic in Arkansas communities. The Partnership oversees the strategic disbursement of opioid settlement dollars at the city and county levels and works to reduce overdose deaths through prevention, treatment, enforcement and recovery. ARORP’s message is simple: be bold, stand together and commit to abating opioid misuse and addiction in Arkansas. To learn more and submit a request for funding, visit ARORP.org.
