CaroNova's goal is to make healthcare more affordable, accessible, and effective for people living across the Carolinas. They do this by conducting research into the healthcare needs of the larger population, convening key stakeholders to develop new healthcare models, and helping communities implement new programs and frameworks. They are much more than just a healthcare advocacy group — they are bringing a visionary new approach to improving healthcare for all.

WHITEPAPER

Mental Wellness Through Schools Toolkit

Improving access and approaches to mental health is one of CaroNova's primary goals. This is especially true when it comes to children, who are particularly vulnerable to mental health challenges yet often lack the support they need. To help change this, CaroNova developed a behavioral health framework that gives teachers and educators a step-by-step guide to identifying needs and offering effective help.

CaroNova wanted this framework to be a resource schools could download and use on their own, independently of any outside organization. To help make their research as accessible as possible, they asked me to rewrite, reformat, and restructure it. I worked closely with CaroNova's SMEs to reimagine this framework so that even those unfamiliar with behavioral health approaches could understand and use it.
