The triumphant story proved that Pine Rest was not only a change-maker in the mental health field but also delivering meaningful treatment to people at a critical point in their health journey. More than 3,000 people had sought help, far exceeding projections. As a result of our efforts, a new wave of media stories was generated by TV, radio and print news outlets about the number of people who had been treated at the PUCC. Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services - Nichols Road provides the Kalamazoo community with quality behavioral health services, including therapy, counseling, psychological assessment and testing, intensive outpatient treatment for substance use disorders, psychiatry and medication services. Truscott Rossman partnered with the Pine Rest team to gather and disseminate information about the impact of the PUCC on its six-month anniversary. Additionally, Pine Rest leadership was showcased as thought-leaders and change-makers in the mental health field and made new connections with Detroit journalists. They demonstrated how Pine Rest was offering a first-of-its-kind service in Kent County and was meeting an enormous behavioral health need in the region. The media reports were all positive in tone.

Over the course of ten days in April, the new Pine Rest PUCC was featured in media reports and live interviews on four TV stations, five radio stations and three print outlets. We then pitched the story and supporting media materials to targeted journalists and began locking in media coverage from multiple print, radio and TV news operations. Key to that messaging was the fact that the PUCC is the first of its kind in the region and will help alleviate a chronic and vexing healthcare issue: the need for urgent behavioral health treatment services outside of hospital emergency departments. Once the strategy was locked in, we worked with Pine Rest to develop key messages for each spokesperson, ensuring that the PUCC services were clearly conveyed and that Pine Rest’s brand position as the leader in behavioral health treatment was amplified. Furthermore, we developed a strategy that would roll out the PUCC announcement in waves, allowing different Pine Rest representatives to serve as spokespeople over several days.
Our collaborative plan targeted specific reporters in Detroit, Lansing, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo and Holland.
