SMALLab Flare is a team of four students at Carnegie Mellon University’s Entertainment Technology Center. The team is building a project on destigmatizing mental health issues in a school setting for middle school and high school students. The goal of the project is to raise awareness and help these students navigate the issues they face, through forms of collaboration and gamified experiences on SMALLab and other technology. The project is being built in collaboration with Northgate School District students and Allegheny Health Network behavioral and mental health specialists, notably from their Chill project.
