Navigating a complex healthcare system with many different federal, state and local services can feel overwhelming and confusing—and when trying to find programs for older adults and people with disabilities that are available in-home or in their community, it begins to feel impossible. My Place CT understands this and offers easy-to-understand information people need to live independently at home.
A total redesign of MyPlaceCT.org created an engaging personalized experience for visitors and pulled all of the local resources together into one mobile-friendly hub. It includes a new situation-based search and filtering tool, making it easier for visitors to find exactly what they want. Coupled with a statewide media campaign focused on the idea that, “there’s no place like in-home,” we educated the community that in-home care and support is an option—and that My Place CT is the source for information.
The campaign increased web sessions by nearly 75% and users by nearly 66%. Over 50% of those users are accessing the site on mobile. Building on this increase in online usage, we also formed and trained a statewide network of community partners to help promote myplacect.org and assist people with accessing information if needed.
