BetterEDU Launches Groundbreaking Peer-to-Peer Support App, Prioritizing College Students' Mental Wellness

The new free app BetterEDU works toward connecting students for improved mental health support.


College life can be one of the most exciting times of a student's life, and for others, it can be demanding in unexpected ways, negatively impacting a student's mental health. A big question is if technology can help facilitate solutions to these problems.

In that spirit, Heather Anne Cochran, the visionary founder behind BetterEDU, proudly announces the official launch of an innovative peer-to-peer group app designed exclusively for college students. BetterEDU aims to revolutionize mental health care for college students by providing free and accessible support, fostering connections, and prioritizing the well-being of its growing college student user base.

Heather Anne Cochran emphasizes the importance of creating strong connections among college students, commenting, "Our mission is to bring peers together, forming robust support networks within our groups and with each other. We want to elevate the college experience by helping ensure students' mental health is looked after and providing a platform where they can meet and cultivate lasting friendships."

BetterEDU addresses the unique mental health challenges faced by students in innovative ways. The app offers a diverse range of small group sessions, allowing students to create connections through mental health groups, unwind sessions, and friendly chats. From stress management to tackling academic pressure, BetterEDU is committed to creating a supportive community that understands and caters to the needs of college students.

Joining a group on the app is simple and easy. With a simple tap, students can enter ongoing sessions led by dedicated group leaders who are ready to support and guide them. The app's flexibility allows users to customize their group support schedule, ensuring it aligns with their preferences and fits into what is often a challenging college routine. Currently BetterEDU has over 20 active groups, and we are looking for more college interns and volunteers to lead groups on the app!

The app and the student support it helps facilitate are both free. There are no insurance fees or other charges to worry about. The goal is to provide accessible mental health care that provides an outlet for stress and pressure without adding any financial burden.

In addition to peer support groups, BetterEDU also provides connections to warmlines. These local support lines, run by peers who share similar experiences, offer a free and confidential alternative to crisis lines. They serve as valuable resources for those seeking local mental health help.

College students are invited to kickstart the journey towards improved mental health and lasting friendships by exploring BetterEDU. With fresh updates and new groups added often, the app aims to be a reliable companion for students navigating the challenges of college life.
