Mental health can be an uncomfortable topic to discuss. Oftentimes, youth point to stigma and fear of being different as reasons for struggling with a mental health condition in silence.

Our platform uses text messaging, a preferred communication method for youth, to help them feel more comfortable talking with each other. Paired with small group discussions, participants learn they are not alone – and that there are ways to get help.

Youth gather in groups of 3-4

Groups text into our platform and follow the text message prompts

Together, the group discusses mental health and how to help others

Youth become more comfortable talking about mental health and learn where to get help
