What this project means and Why it matters

The Mental Health Strategy for High Performance Sport—and the tools and resources that came with it—helped us make a big impact on the well-being of athletes and coaches. But that is only one part of the strategy. I’d like to know whether we’ve made an impact in other areas as well. A good strategy needs to be reviewed, updated and adjusted periodically: What are we missing, and what might need to change? I’m looking forward to the learnings that result from this project.
