The problem

The Asteroid Model

If an asteroid was discovered headed for earth with only a day's notice, no response would prevent mass destruction.
But if that same asteroid was discovered a few years earlier, just a love tap would be enough to change the course of history.
These kids are asteroids in search of a love tap—hurling through space without the tools to cope with the pace of social media, pandemics and their own survival

The theory

Art and CBT

Give students basic Cognitive Behavioral Theraphy exercises virtually and skills to combat stress.
Use Machine Learning to identify students needing more support.
If given a low-risk opportunity, students will choose to help each other.
Students will have more trust in something if they are involved in the creation.

The idea

School Pulse

There is a growing body of evidence connecting mental health with mass shootings. Improving our students' mental health is the 'love tap' needed to prevent extreme violence from entering our schools. Providing coping skills to modern stresses like technology and social media, bullying, urban lifestyles and known triggers such as divorce, alcohol and drug abuse will lower the risk to extreme violence.
