Community Resources Research

Having a mental wellness app requires having some kind of resource for users in crisis. Instead of simply providing a 911 phone number, a list of local resources for different needs will be able to better support individuals having a mental wellness crisis or emergency, or who simply don’t know where to turn. The goal of this project is to provide our app users with a list of local community resources to call or reach out to based on their geolocation in the case of a mental wellness emergency. The research will include: Scoping out community resources in North America (all provinces, territories, and states) Compiling community contacts/resources Validating/vetting contacts and their services

Mental Health App Language Review

The Refresh Wellness platform will be launching as a mobile app at the end of December, 2022. Before we can release the app we need to complete a full review of the language and copy to ensure it's accessible for our target users. This project will be completed separately by two different students in order for the Project Manager to see different perspectives of the app. The resulting projects will be reviewed by the Project Manager and UI/UX team to make the best decisions for the mobile application. The goal of this project is to complete a review of the language/copy in the Refresh Wellness app to offer changes and suggestions before we launch the app publicly. Project tasks will be: Reviewing all language and copy used on all screens of the Refresh Wellness app Suggesting emotion synonyms for the journal screens Editing language/copy to reflect an 6th-8th grade reading level
