Mission Statement

Why Accidents?According to Health People 2020, accidents and unintentional injuries are the #1 cause
of death for young adults ages 20-24
Problems Solutions•Students don’t know what to do when they get sick or stressed
•Students don’t know where to go to get help
•Students don’t know how to prevent risky behaviors
•Students don’t remember their symptoms when they see a doctor
•Students don’t have a place to store medical information, just in case

Impact Over 50,000 students attend
ASU’s Tempe Campus with an
additional 15,000 at the other three campuses. This app could impact many of these students’ lifestyles and hopefully prevent risky behaviors.
In time, we hope that our app can be adapted and adopted by many different colleges around the country
Together we can help significantly reduce the number of harmful and deadly accidents
