Matching done right
We aim to ensure that you always have a social worker with a certain understanding of common lived experiences.
We account for over 300+ different lived experiences that strengthen our understanding and human connection with our clients. Achieving this is done through our four-tier experience system, beginning with first-hand experiences:
First Hand - Social worker has first-hand experience
Loved-Ones - A social worker has a loved one who has dealt with the lived experience
Professional Setting - A social worker works in a professional setting that handles that lived experience, i.e., a school social worker
Education: Social worker has high knowledge of lived experience through college-level classes
This helps to:
Reduce stigma
Provide hope and inspiration
Offer practical advice and support
Build community and reduce loneliness
We want to improve the compatibility rate between you and your social worker to minimize the amount of time determining a good fit, regardless of the support you are seeking.
We believe that human connection can blossom in a trusting, non-biased space, and vulnerabilities can be safely shared. Safe spaces are crucial to open and honest communication, maximized through our one-of-a-kind matching style.
We believe that these four categories are key to providing an authentic experience to truly be heard, understood, and not feel alone:
Lived Experiences
Culture/Background
Age/Generation
Hobbies
