Enable My Child hasn't added a story.
My name is Syed, and recently I learned about a significant problem that affects millions of children and their families across our country: the lack of access to adequate and affordable mental health care. This problem is especially important to address in children because early detection and treatment of mental illness, increases the chance of flourishment exponentially. We can normalize the lives of children who are struggling with mental illness, and we can assist them in becoming productive individuals in our society.
About eighteen months ago, I had the opportunity to speak with a pediatrician regarding access to mental health care in children and adolescents. During this meeting, I learned how essential access to healthcare is for the early detection of childhood illness and the initiation of treatment. After that meeting, I spoke with dozens parents, therapists, and doctors, who all confirmed that this problem is real and a solution is desperately needed. I put assembled a team of five pediatric therapy experts and a technology engineer who has previously built healthcare technology solutions. Together, we developed an innovative digital platform where families and children from across the country can access quality and affordable treatment with trained certified therapists. After an initial intake, the therapists would provide services on the online platform, which will be very user-friendly and easy to navigate. The most important part about our technology would be that it would analyze rating scores by parents and clinicians, and generate “best practice” treatment plans for new patients with similar conditions. As the database grows, the 'smarter' it will become.
The main goal of this project is to improve access to current and relevant treatment that will improve the quality of the lives of these children and their families. Since, this is an online platform, we had significantly reduced costs by not needing to have physical clinic locations. Currently, there are nine members of the Enable My Child project and the mission is deeply personal to each one of us; and we are all working on this project without financial compensation; which is expected to continue to be true for at least the next nine months. Roughly 95% of your contribution will go into advertising our service to parents around the country. The remaining 5 percent will be used for operating costs including maintaining servers, legal fees, etc.
We need to drastically increase awareness of this issue and bring this program to the millions of families and children who need a solution. This program could very well be the difference between a happy healthy child and tragedy. Please give as generously as possible, but, no amount that is too small. Please continue the work we have started and share this page with on your social media networks. www.fundrazr.com/enablemychild
