Alli Connect is an American technology company credited with creating the first mobile mental health tools for first responder mental health, suicide prevention, and peer support programs.[1] The Alli Connect System provides tools for law enforcement agencies, fire departments, EMS, and have future use cases for federal agencies.[2]

Leadership

[edit]

The firm is led by Advisory Board member Richard Carmona, an American physician, nurse, police officer, public health administrator, and politician, who was a vice admiral in the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps and served as the seventeenth Surgeon General of the United States.[3]

Impact

[edit]

The firm's systems provides pro-active mental wellness tools for first responders, a demographic of American workforce who is the subject of depression, self-harm, and prominent suicide statistics. Their service is an early detection system, providing user-controlled confidentiality and privacy, an industry first. The provided resources are deemed “first responder friendly,” so the person who is looking for help is not required to go through several therapists before finding compatibility.[4]
