Challenge
How to Help Young People Develop the Social and Emotional Skills Needed to Succeed?
The Mosakowski Institute for Public Enterprise is part of Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. It’s focused on the behavioral health of adolescents and young adults, particularly young men of color.
“With OutSystems and the expertise of valantic, we were able to think out of the box and deliver our ‘MI Peace’ app to connect and engage with young people and help them at this difficult time."
The institute envisions a world where young people are supported to develop the social and emotional skills they need to succeed in school and life. The team realized that they needed innovative ways to connect with young people to help them take advantage of the available support.
The pandemic crisis and social distancing meant that the institute urgently needed new digital tools that would help them serve isolated young people and ensure that they could access support.
Why Clark University chose OutSystems:
Speed-up development and improve agility
Deliver public-facing web and mobile apps
Enable continuous delivery
Solution
Agile Development Led to Numerous Enhancements
Since mid-2020, the Mosakowski Institute has been working with OutSystems, and delivery partner valantic to launch a mobile app and portal called “MI Peace.”
“We wanted to do something big and bold in the way we support young people with their mental health concerns—especially in light of the extra challenges from COVID."
Following a two-week ideation workshop that identified 24 high-level requirements, MI Peace was delivered in eight months of agile development. Thanks to the speed and flexibility of OutSystems and the expertise of valantic, the project team delivered numerous enhancements they identified during the project.
