Koko is a nonprofit organization that leverages digital platforms to provide free, evidence-based mental health interventions for youth, aiming to address the youth mental health crisis.
Koko is dedicated to supporting youth mental health by working with major digital platforms to offer free, evidence-based interventions. The organization uses keyword detection and targeted ad placement to intercept young people in need of help and redirects them to free helplines, peer support, or self-help courses.

This approach is supported by partnerships with leading online platforms and endorsements from experts like Dr. Matthew Nock from Harvard.
