Overview
When Horizon Behavioral Health wanted to increase community awareness of its substance use treatment services across Central Virginia, we stepped in to help build and execute a campaign that could truly meet people where they are. The effort was designed to reach adults 18 and older across a wide service area spanning Lynchburg, Appomattox, Altavista, Amherst County, Bedford County, and Campbell County.
A multi channel approach was the backbone of the strategy, bringing together social media advertising, geo targeted digital video ads, billboards, and direct mail to connect with audiences both online and in the real world. The messaging put a spotlight on Horizon's peer recovery services, family focused treatment options, and specialized programs like Project LINK, a program dedicated to supporting pregnant and postpartum women affected by substance use. Every channel worked together to make sure the people who needed these resources could actually find them.
