Navigant Publishes Children’s Book to Support National Reading Day

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Today, Navigant (NYSE: NCI) and author Craig Frazier announced the
limited edition release of the children’s book, Catch That Hat! The
colorfully illustrated book about the importance of perseverance will be
donated to children’s libraries, nonprofit organizations, and schools
across the globe in conjunction with National Reading Day in the United
States.

Catch That Hat! advances Navigant’s One Million by 2020 (1Mx2020)
program, which aims to positively impact one million youth by helping to
improve the college and career readiness of tomorrow’s leaders by the
year 2020. The concept of the book was developed in 2012 with the launch
of Navigant’s 1Mx2020 program. As Navigant’s workforce contributed to
the 1Mx2020 goal over the last three years, illustrations on each page
of the online book were revealed to show the firm’s growing impact.

“Navigant’s pledge to better prepare our future leaders grew out of our
passion for education, youth development, and our desire to harness and
focus our robust volunteer, philanthropic and pro bono pursuits,” said
Julie Howard, Chairman and CEO, Navigant. “This is an ambitious goal we
continue to work towards. Catch That Hat! is just one example of
how our workforce is inspiring and positively affecting the next
generation of leaders.”

  positive experiences to support them becoming future members of our
  society and workforce, will receive a donation of books from Navigant.
