Tri-City Mental Health was a proud participant in the Help@Hand project, a statewide collaborative of 14 counties and cities in California that shared a common goal of improving the mental health of Californians by using technology and programs to improve the behavioral health care system.

Tri-City was offering access to free subscriptions of the digital wellness app, myStrength to residents of Pomona, La Verne, and Claremont. Residents who did not have regular access to a smartphone, tablet, or computer to utilize the application were provided the opportunity to borrow a tablet from Tri-City. Participants were asked to interact with the application on a regular basis and provide their feedback through surveys. Through the usage of this app and the feedback provided, Tri-City learned about the importance of integrating promising technologies into the behavioral health care system.

We want to take this time to thank our participants and those who supported this Innovation project. Your participation and support were crucial to the success we saw from this Help@Hand project. Please feel free to utilize the app until it concludes on Tuesday, December 5th. If you enjoyed the myStrength app and would like to continue exploring apps that offer mental health support, please explore the iPrevail app that is offered free to residents within Los Angeles County. https://lacounty.iprevail.com/

We look forward to continuing and expanding digital health literacy in our communities through new endeavors. If you would like to participate in implementing new or changed approaches that can advise current and future mental health practices, we encourage you to check out our Innovation web page for more information. https://www.tricitymhs.org/mhsa/innovation
