Support Our Mission.
Your donation to the Lab for Scalable Mental Health directly supports our mission to create, test, and share accessible mental health tools—especially for youth and families who may otherwise be left without care.
With your support, we can:
- Conduct rigorous research on digital, single-session interventions (SSIs) designed to reduce depression, anxiety, and distress in young people.
- Compensate youth and caregiver participants who generously share their experiences to help us evaluate and improve our tools.
- Train school counselors, social workers, peer specialists, and community leaders to deliver evidence-based, brief interventions in the real world—reaching thousands of people beyond the lab.
- Launch and evaluate partnerships with school districts, healthcare systems, and nonprofits to expand the reach of effective interventions.
- Sustain the lab team whose work powers every step of this impact—from data analysis and design to training and translation.
We never charge youth or families to access our tools. Your generosity helps ensure we can keep creating science that serves—freely, quickly, and at scale.
