Suicide Prevention
Created by 2 students who felt that resources for students were lacking as it relates to mental health supports. This app is a pre-crisis tool that houses trusted contacts. If you click on the link, your contacts will be notified of your location and automatically know you need support. The contacts let the person know if they can help and be of support. If immediate help is needed, crisis lines are also embedded. It also has an "I'm OK" button to let contacts know that they are now okay. Simple, reliable and there for anyone who uploads the app!
