Konfront Family - support of parents to children with mental distress
In collaboration with Konfront were came up with a concept that would help parents to children with mental distress. Children suffering from mental distress can cause a lot of challenges that influence the daily lives of themselves as well as their parents.
The solution was a platform to support a number of issues described by the parents themselves. The platform creates value by assisting parents in supporting their children. Furthermore, it aims to aid underlying needs in the parental role, and the emotional burden that comes with having a mentally distressed child.
A helping hand for the parents
The platform is a digital collection of relevant knowledge, exercises and tools to lighten the burden and process for the parents trying to help their child.
A platform for the individual family
All families are different and our research shows that some features work for one kind of family while not for another. Therefore the different features of the platform should add value to different families no matter if they use all the features or just some of them in their own way.
