BASE
Tier 2 and 3 Mental Health Prevention and Intervention
Support for Student Mental Health Through Deeper Connection and Belonging
Today’s students are experiencing higher levels of stress, anxiety, and depression than ever before, and targeted mental health education and support for students is critical to prevention and intervention. Base, an interactive, online student-facing mental health platform, was founded to ensure educators have the tools to learn, respond, and connect to students in crisis and others facing the challenges of today’s world.
A Mental Health Platform that Connects Educators to Their Students
Developed by mental health professionals, the Base platform is designed to help students understand and articulate their emotions. Offering flexible curriculum modules that address a range of topics that teachers may find tough to discuss, the Base platform provides an area for journalistic introspection where students process learnings and share insights from their own lives and includes a built-in crisis-alert system that lets administrators know when a student is experiencing a mental health emergency that needs immediate intervention.
Personalized Learning that Supports Students’ Individual Mental Health Needs
Guided by the Baseline self-reporting survey results, educators have the data and tools to develop personalized learning pathways for students.
