Our mission
We empower student-athletes to achieve and maintain optimal mental wellness so they can perform their best on the field, in the classroom, and in life.
The problem
Remember that the student-athletes have spoken: Mental health is their No. 1 concern - and it is our responsibility to provide the services and care to help each student-athlete reach his or her full potential.
Student-athlete mental health is an under-recognized health issue, and if managed improperly, leads to poor performance in sport and the classroom, and can potentially lead to life-threatening emergencies.
- Dr. Brian Hainline, former Chief Medical Officer, NCAA
Our game plan
The Balance Position app motivates student-athletes to develop mindfulness and coping skills, keep track of relevant behaviors, visualize trends in their progress, and connect with people in their support network in an engaging user experience.
Technology
We work with all stakeholders to create custom programs merging best practices and the unique needs of your organization to provide a holistic mental health program for your student-athletes.
Programming
Outreach
