Access to Counseling
Technology enhanced counseling services for qualified individuals, groups, or schools
Mental health issues have been rising in the Philippines, worsened by pandemic lockdowns, stigma, and limited access to care—especially for persons with disabilities. To address this, the project aims to build a technology-driven mental health support platform that combines AI-powered chatbots and trained human counselors. The chatbots will provide immediate, round-the-clock emotional support using conversational AI with relatable personalities, while human providers will monitor and respond to cases that need deeper intervention.
The project welcomes volunteers and collaborators with expertise in AI, data science, software engineering, UX design, accessibility, and mental health program development. Interested individuals may contact projects@accessifiers.org to join the initiative.
