UCAN is working on implementing a clinical community approach to the way substance use disorder (SUD) is being facilitated today.

Challenge

For UCAN’s new website, the core goal was to be an accessible resource for individuals grappling with substance use disorder. At the same time, it also had to appeal to donors. This demanded a website that was not only informative, but also intuitive and engaging for each user group. The new site had to balance these distinct needs without compromising the user experience.

Goals

  • Secure funding by showcasing UCAN's impact and facilitating donor contributions.
  • Serve as a comprehensive resource for individuals battling substance use disorder.
  • Engage volunteers by highlighting opportunities and simplifying the participation process.
  • Streamline appointment booking to ensure easy access to UCAN's services.
  • Regularly update the website to keep the content relevant and valuable for all user groups.

The design and development process was iterative, involving continuous collaboration with the UCAN team to ensure the site not only met the immediate requirements, but also remained a dynamic, evolving resource.
