Testing a Wellness App for First Responders, Military Personnel and Veterans

The GUIDE App is a wellbeing app designed for first responders and veterans that uses small group support, a learning management system, drivers of behavior change, and an anonymous member experience safeguarded by a leader in identity and login privacy, Okta (okta.com). It includes three main features: 1) Community, 2) Wisdom, and 3) Daily Practice. The Community feature connects app users with an online community of like folks, allowing for human support, encouragement, accountability and coaching. Online communities are moderated by GUIDE employees. The Wisdom feature includes tools and interactive media for personal growth. The Daily Practice feature includes simple, daily routines to maintain mental and emotional wellness.
