Lakeridge Health – “I Belong”

Lakeridge Health – “I Belong” Campaign

Category: Brand Storytelling / Corporate & Internal

In partnership with Pages for Good Health Inc, this campaign film was created to support the launch of Lakeridge Health’s Inclusion, Diversity, Anti-Racism, and Accessibility (IDAA) plan. Centered on the theme of belonging in healthcare, the piece brings together real voices and honest conversations to paint a human picture of what inclusive care feels like. More than a corporate initiative, this was a cultural moment. And the video helped lead it.

❌ The Problem

Lakeridge Health was ready to publicly roll out its IDAA plan, a major step in reshaping internal culture and community trust. But plans on paper rarely shift hearts. They needed a story-first asset that could humanize the mission, spark reflection, and anchor tough but necessary conversations across a massive, diverse organization.

✅ The Solution

We collaborated with Lakeridge Health and Pages for Good Health to craft a piece that would live the values it represented. Using unscripted interviews, subtle editorial choices, and intentional pacing, we brought together team members, leadership, and frontline stories to showcase a healthcare environment striving to do better, together. The piece avoids buzzwords and leans into truth: vulnerability, curiosity, joy, and the reality of systemic change.

“ This wasn’t about checking boxes or making something pretty. It was about capturing the tension and beauty of a healthcare system learning to care more deeply, not just for patients, but for each other. Huge credit to Lakeridge and Pages for Good Health for making space for something real.“

📈 The Result

The video premiered as the anchor to Lakeridge’s IDAA launch, but its impact extended far beyond the event. Internally, it became a cultural touchstone: used in onboarding, training, and team discussions. Externally, it signaled a commitment to listening, learning, and leading with empathy. Today, it remains a reference point for future initiatives focused on inclusion, belonging, and authentic healthcare storytelling.
