A quarter of enrolled college students (27%) leave school because they struggle with mental health issues.
We help those students, which keeps them in school.
Advisors, retention specialists, counselors, etc., use our tool to keep their students healthier.
Listen to Phil DeCico explain more.
Students who struggle need support or they are likely to leave school. We deliver that support, without expensive counseling staff, and keep them in school.
Identify a retention risk group and we start to identify which student is struggling with issues. We then give them appropriate support for their issue and refer any acute cases to a counseling resource.
“Our administration is focused on supporting the mental health of all our students. This program is a great tool to help us regularly engage students to keep them healthy and ready to learn. It works really well for our counseling staff.”

Our Story: Brian and Tabbatha Lawe lost their beloved nephew, 20 year-old Stevie, to suicide. They turned their grief into action by creating a foundation to research and fund what became the HopeCheck program. HopeCheck regularly asked K-12 and college students about their hope outlook to identify the earliest signs of hopelessness.
During hundreds of school and counselor discussions, we learned that K-12 and college counselors never have enough time to do caring contacts as they wished. So, we decided to help by building a new technology to do comprehensive student caring contacts for all K-12 and college advisors, counselors, retentional specialists, etc.
We couldn’t build it alone, so we got tremendous assistance from the Kopp Family Foundation, and the nonprofit Ave Maria Community Corporation. The result is StudentCaringContacts.org. Our primary focus is on helping students. Our goal is to keep students safe and healthy, which keeps them in school and succeeding!
