Platform Overview
MARS in Practice: A Case Study
80,000+ screenings and 5,000+ students identified and connected to care with one partner.
MARS was built with, and is used every day by, a nonprofit behavioral health partner that runs school-based mental health screening across many schools. It is the clearest proof of what the platform does at scale.
🏫 The program
- Students complete a validated self-report screening in school, in English or Spanish, with audio support.
- Results reach authorized school staff the moment a screening is finished.
- Students who show risk receive a same-day check-in with a clinician, and a safety plan when needed.
- Students and families who want ongoing support are connected to care through care navigation, and follow-up is tracked over time.
📊 The results
- 80,000+ screenings completed since fall 2023.
- 5,000+ students identified and connected to care.
🔑 What made it work
- Screening linked to care. Every result has a next step, so screening is never an end in itself.
- One dashboard per school. Staff see who needs help today, not in next month's report.
- Connected systems. Sites and providers are managed in the partner's CRM and sync to MARS automatically. See Integrations.
- Outcome reporting. Aggregated data supports school reviews, state reporting and funding requirements. See Analytics Dashboard.
