Teaching Learning Leading K-12

Dr. Elsa Friis & Jay Goyal discuss - Alongside: A.I. Helping Students with Their Mental Health Needs. This is episode 626 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast. A report by the National Center for Education Statistics found that 69% of schools report an increase in students seeking mental health services, while only 13% can effectively meet those needs. Alongside, an AI-powered chatbot, provides every student the 24/7, tier 1 mental health support they urgently want and can’t get from overburdened counselors. The app is designed for middle and high school students.  Dr. Elsa Friis is Head of Mental Health at Alongside and Jay Goyal is the CEO at Alongside.  So much to learn and discover. Before you go...
