Hady’s Hackaton: Enactus Hacks

Saturday, February 1st, 2020 to Sunday, February 2nd, 2020

Inspiration

Our inspiration comes from the fact that there is

1 in 3 Canadians that will suffer from a mental
illness during their lifetime. There is $51 billion
per year on the loss of mental health-related
issues.

What it does

Our platform provides an aesthetically pleasing interactive environment that allows

people with past and current experiences with mental illness to post their experiences
online where they can be guided into a solution. A solution consists of either a user
response or a recommendation provided by an AI system.

How I built it

Using HTML 5 and node.js we implemented the interactive website. The forum is
moderated and provides recommendations using an AI.

Challenges I ran into

Implementation of an AI was difficult to achieve within the 24 hrs allotted, however, we

created a schematic of backend code of the AI.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We were able to collect data 150 student samples who were interested in this platform
and admitted that would reduce mental health stigma.

What I learned

In this project, we learned effective pitching and presentation techniques. In additional

we learned how to use node.js and HTML 5 to implement an interactive website that
houses the user to user connection experience.
