Social Media Community Manager

Why Alongside?

Every student struggles with issues that affect their mental health, and left unaddressed these issues grow into much larger problems. Overburdened school counselors and staff are stretching as far as they can, but it's impossible to meet the need. With Alongside, schools can provide 24/7 preventative mental health support for every student and save counselors and staff time to focus on tier 2 and 3.

Using our app, students use a chatbot to talk to the llama and get personalized support developed by our team of clinicians. The llama makes it comfortable for students to open up about their specific challenges for 80+ issues. Students learn skills to solve their own problems and commit to concrete goals to take action in real life. The app is designed for middle and high school students, and the company works exclusively with schools
