HealthWide Solutions designed SAAS based platforms focused on student emotional health.

Problem: The US spends billions of dollars “reacting” to school violence but the REAL solution must be prevention.

  • React via warning systems, cameras, high tech security, guards and simulations of violence.
  • Counselors are reactive and unclear which students pose an emotional risk; overwhelmed due to lack of prioritization.
  • Most school targeted attacks were planned and shared in advance (80%); most attackers were bullied.
  • More deaths occur from suicide than homicide. suicide rate increased by 56% from 2007 to 2017 for ages 10 to 24.

Solution: an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure

  • Emphasize emotional awareness weekly uncovering who needs help.
  • Prioritize counselor involvement via want to talk & alert words.
  • Provide confidential messaging available to warn of intended harm to self or others.
  • Connect – lifeline to address suicidal ideation, decrease violence & bullying.
