headspace Newcastle improves strategic planning for young people with Ellis Jones

headspace Newcastle, a youth mental health organization, faced the challenge of evolving its strategy to better respond to the needs of young people in its community, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. They commissioned the vendor Ellis Jones to guide this strategic planning process.

The solution involved analyzing research data to define community needs and using a shared value framework to identify sustainable opportunities. The outcome was a strategic report with actionable insights for reaching more young people and strengthening staff coordination, which was endorsed and presented for implementation across the organization.
