About Alongside
Alongside is a preventative mental health app that gives students in grades 4–12 a safe space to work through life’s ups and downs — improving attendance, behavior, and connection, so school staff don’t have to carry it all alone. It's developed by clinicians for schools, and there's also a version for staff.
The founders of Alongside previously built Actively Learn, a K-12 digital curriculum company that was acquired by McGraw Hill in 2021. Alongside was founded in 2022 with a mission to reduce adolescent anxiety, depression, and suicidality. Learn more at www.alongside.care.
