Education's RoadMAP to Prevention: Proactive Mental Wellbeing

Reactive treatment isn't enough. Flourishing schools need proactive, data-driven planning that also saves time and reduces cost. MAP software uses AI to assess and address population mental wellbeing across 5 key elements to identify targeted goals and design preventive implementation plans. Build resilience and improve mental health before crisis.

Updated

We envision a future where schools are proactive, not reactive, in supporting student mental wellbeing. We hope MAP will shift the paradigm from crisis management to prevention, fostering resilient school communities where students thrive and reach their full potential. Ultimately, we want to empower schools with the tools and data they need to create a flourishing culture of wellbeing for all.

About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

We created MAP to address the reactive nature of current mental health support in schools. After 20 years witnessing preventable crises, burnout, and costly interventions, we sought a proactive, evidence-based pathway. MAP strengthens mental wellness, builds resilience, and—crucially—saves valuable time and effort for school teams.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

MAP guides schools through a step-by-step, evidence-based process to create data-driven, tailored mental health prevention plans. A school project lead, supported by our consultants, uses MAP software to implement the EQUIP model (Examine, Quantify, Unite, Inquire, Plan) and the 5-Elements of Systemic Wellbeing framework. This involves: 1) Surveying campus wellbeing; 2) Identifying key intervention areas; and 3) Creating a customized roadmap with student and professional stakeholders. MAP uses AI to analyze and interpret qualitative and quantitative data to identify targeted goals, develop preventive plans, and automate reporting, saving time and resources. It supports schools in identifying needs, assessing root causes from social determinants of mental health, intervening with personalized plans, measuring outcomes, and continuously improving mental health initiatives school-wide.

How has it been spreading?

MAP is currently working with a select group of schools following a successful pilot study (9/2023-9/2024). We officially launched in September 2024 and are focused on building strong partnerships and demonstrating the impact of our proactive approach to mental wellbeing in education.

If I want to try it, what should I do?

To explore MAP for your school, contact us at contact@mindarchhealth.com or call 001-631-213-1404.
We'll discuss your needs to determine if MAP is a good fit, provide a demo and answer any questions, and streamline the approval process. Once your team is ready to begin, we can onboard your school in under an hour.

Implementation steps

Sign into the MAP Software

Educational institutions will assign a project lead that, once onboarded, will initially sign into the MAP Software application using their secure credentials.
*The institution retains full ownership and control over their data at all times. MindArch Health Inc. acts as the data processor, storing, securing, and processing data. The institution has the sole authority to determine how their data is shared or disseminated.

Contextual Analysis: Understanding the current landscape

Project Leads will answer qualitative questions to understand the contextual conditions that uniquely impact the target population. MAP will automatically summarize your responses and add them to your preventive implementation plan.

Score Risk Factors: Understand population vulnerabilities

MAP uses data scraping to score risk factors in 9 categories based on social determinants of mental health to predict higher vulnerability of disorder based on your zip code. This data is automatically added to your implementation plan. Community outcomes inform high need areas, social and community needs and the current prevalence of disorder. Project Leads will use this information to analyze their highest need areas with expert support.

Survey Mental Wellbeing: 5-Elements of Systemic Wellbeing

Our custom survey link engages students, faculty, and staff in a self-assessment of their psychological health and protective factors within the school environment. Participants receive a personalized action plan with school-provided resources. Anonymous data is automatically analyzed by MAP, disaggregated by demographics to identify at-risk subgroups, and used to generate a targeted goal. Expert consultation supports the school's Project Lead in interpreting results.

Unite Stakeholders: Lived experiences

The Project Lead will complete a software assisted stakeholder analysis and add select stakeholders to your team. Stakeholders share lived experiences through qualitative questionnaires in the software allowing for a representative understanding of the population. Discussion agendas are provided to engage the task force in focus groups and discussion of the data insights and goal. Expert consultation is provided to support outreach, engagement, participation and feedback.

Developing Prevention Plans: 3-Phase Implementation

Stakeholder teams turn data into action through a step by step action planning sequence in the MAP software led by their Project Lead with expert consultation. Predictive research-based solutions are provided on the targeted goal. Action steps are defined and executed across 4P's (policy, practice, program, and places) within the school environment, and automatically summarized in the implementation plan.

Post-Intervention Survey Measure: Comparative Data

The 5-Element of Systemic Wellbeing surveys are sent out again through another unique link to a sample of students, faculty and staff to understand changes in psychological health and protective factors after implementation of school wide changes. The data is automatically analyzed and interpreted to understand comparative results with expert consultation.
