WHO WE AREWe began as a team of passionate entrepreneurs from Northern Virginia who saw a widespread, common problem in our community.
In our area, over 60,000 students face depressive symptoms every year, and over one-third of the students reported experiencing high levels of stress at least once a month. In fact, 25% of individuals 18-25 experience mental illness nationwide and 57% of all students with diagnoseable conditions don't seek treatment for fear of stigma. With statistics like these, we knew it was time to start talking about mental health. |
