Counseling is about listening and helping students. We multiply a counselor’s hands, eyes, and ears so they can help more students in every school.
We help counselors engage every student, every two weeks. But that’s not all. Once they learn someone has an issue, we help the counselor provide excellent attendant care to each student individually.
Listen to Phil DeCico explain more.
Referrals often come too late or too early. Screening gives counselors exactly the data they need, when they need it. Our program saves time and identifies students earlier, when it matters most!
Our service delivers care to hundreds of struggling students as early as possible in just 15 minutes a week. We refer acute cases to the right professional well before a crisis event might emerge.
“Our administration is focused on supporting the mental health of all our students. This program is a great tool to help us regularly engage students to keep them healthy and ready to learn. It works really well for our counseling staff.”

Our Story: Brian and Tabbatha Lawe lost their beloved nephew, Stevie, to suicide. They turned their grief into action by creating a foundation to research and fund what became the HopeCheck program. HopeCheck regularly asked K-12 and college students about their hope outlook to identify the earliest signs of hopelessness.
During hundreds of school and counselor discussions, we learned that K-12 and college counselors never have enough time to do caring contacts as they wished. So, we decided to help by building a new technology to do comprehensive student caring contacts for all K-12 and college advisors, counselors, retentional specialists, etc.
We couldn’t build it alone, so we got tremendous assistance from the Kopp Family Foundation, and the nonprofit Ave Maria Community Corporation. The result is StudentCaringContacts.org. Our primary focus is on helping students. Our goal is to keep students safe and healthy, which keeps them in school and succeeding!
