We make dense, complicated information easy to follow and understand, which underscores our mission: to keep people safe.\\n\\nSeveral states are currently relying on our services to navigate Covid-19.\\n\\nFor our next project we are focused on mental health... the next pandemic. In Utah, almost 25% of the population is reporting depression symptoms, a 19% increase from before COVID. The evidence is so strong on what treatments actually work, that we will be integrating this into our solution. \\n\\nThe challenge is to develop something engaging and fun, that helps people.\\nFor that we have retained a brain psychologist who designed the popular game Fortnite.
