The Problem
Half of all adolescents will experience a mental health disorder during their teen years. Trauma — from abuse, bullying, loss, accidents, racial violence, and community violence — is a leading driver. Yet no app on the market combines trauma-specific content, teen-native design, and broad public availability in one place. Teens face three barriers to getting help: stigma, cost, and access. This app addresses all three and is actually built by them and for them. It will focus on teens ages 13 to 19 who have survived trauma. It will be available in the app store for people internationally to access. It will consist of 4 main courses, 8 segments in each.
