We need you today for a better tomorrow. Our kids are counting on it.
A new digital self-assessment tool for youth was found to be 93 per cent accurate in identifying mental health concerns in a study published today in The Journal of Pediatrics.

Similar to how water out of the tap is fine to drink, but tastes better when filtered — these tools provide a second layer of analysis to purify the data and highlight the findings that are actually relevant and significant.

We believe there’s nothing we can’t do with your support. It can take years to turn scientific breakthrough into new interventions and treatments. Funding helps speed the pace of change. When given the resources, we can bring transformative therapies – and hope – out of the laboratory and into the clinic to save and improve children’s lives.
