Health Tech Without Borders, Inc. (HTWB), in collaboration with Sora Union and Mindstep, proudly launches a free mental health app for displaced people from Ukraine, living in the United Kingdom (UK).

“Mindstep for Ukraine” provides UK-based Ukrainians with access to gold-standard assessments and tools for neurological and mental health conditions. To enhance effectiveness, the teams encourage users to sign up, play a pivotal role in refining the app, and contribute critical insights into neurological conditions.

Globally, displaced people face unique challenges and barriers to accessing comprehensive healthcare and mental health services. This includes difficulties in navigating unfamiliar community services, language barriers, limited understanding of government assistance, and fear of being judged when asking for help.

In response to these challenges, HTWB is actively seeking support to expand the reach of "Mindstep for Ukraine" to all Ukrainians, addressing the widespread impact of displacement and conflict.

Mindstep for Ukraine addresses population and location-specific challenges. By efficiently providing this support, it contributes to local communities, ensuring that everyone has an equal opportunity to flourish and make positive contributions to society regardless of their circumstances.

LOCALIZATION

Crafted for Ukrainians, by Ukrainians

With Mindstep's technology and innovative approach, Ukrainian localization expertise provided by Sora Union, and invaluable contextual and clinical guidance from HTWB, Mindstep’s blueprint has been redeveloped to deliver an additional, translated version of the app.

“This app aims to provide the necessary tools to assess, support, and regulate different aspects of mental health in displaced Ukrainians.

To achieve these goals, HTWB has offered its first-hand knowledge in language-specific and language-appropriate use of terminology and the app’s clinical development in the context of refugee-specific mental health problems, with the lenses of trauma-informed mental health care.” said Eva Regel, HTWB Clinical Director for Helping Healers Heal Program.

The “Mindstep for Ukraine” mental health app is available for free for Ukrainians living in the UK and can be downloaded from Apple Store.

A generous donation of $10 will help improve one adult's mental health and well-being by providing free access to the “Mindstep for
Ukraine” application.
