How technology can support college student mental health

Many colleges and universities have limited counseling staff, and there is still a stigma surrounding mental health issues on college campuses and in society overall. In response to these gaps, Danté Wade, Aaron Warrick, and Gregory Wilson — created Reju, a mental health platform. Graduates of Lincoln University in Pennsylvania, a historically Black college, they founded Reju based on both personal experience and a collective mission to provide students with the mental health resources they need. Reflecting on their experiences with mental health struggles and supporting family members through challenges, the founders sought to create an inclusive platform that fosters “mental, physical, and emotional success.”
