Summary: Mental health remains a complex problem in Indonesia. Besides still considered taboo, limited access to mental health services has worsened the problem. ProjectBeta is a platform that aims to improve mental health literacy among parents in Indonesia by providing mental health curriculum made by experts in the form of articles and practical videos to help recognize, manage, and prevent mental illness in children; it is also giving instant access to the clinician. Our idea is inspired by the integrated health care delivery model, which emphasizes on promotive, preventive, and curative actions.
