User reviews

Effectively simple!

Actually helpful during times of SI thoughts and feelings. I really appreciate the features that get you out of a funk, instead of it just only being a safety plan with places to go and people to contact because sometimes you just want to be alone. Thank you for creating this app, VA

Excellent resource

I just wish there were a way a clinician could use the app for multiple clients and store the safety plans for quick reference.

Highly recommend for Veterans and Civilians alike!

It’s very user friendly, I love how clean the design is & how there are things specific for Veterans but also allows civilians to use it as well. There’s also suggestions and guided walkthroughs for coping skills! Love that you can link your contacts and it separates those that can distract you and those that can help you, bc sometimes those people are different. As a caseworker on a mobile crisis team, I will be recommending to all my clients!
