Case Study: Alliance for Youth Good Food advances healthy food programming in Detroit with The Work Department

Alliance for Youth Good Food builds a 1-year work plan and ecosystem map in 4 months with The Work Department

The Alliance for Youth Good Food, a coalition of Detroit-based organizations, sought to maximize the impact of their healthy food programming for local youth. They required assistance to refine their collective goals, establish an annual work plan, and develop a functional ecosystem map. To address this challenge, they engaged The Work Department for strategic planning and facilitation services.

The Work Department facilitated a series of meetings with the alliance to refresh its goals and identify annual priorities. The vendor's key deliverable was an interactive ecosystem map, hosted as an Airtable database on a member's website, which serves as a resource for identifying food access programs. Additionally, The Work Department provided a strategic one-pager, a one-year work plan, and an operational template to ensure the alliance's continued collaboration and impact.
