The Explorers Program

Let’s provide mental health education to kids before it’s too late.

The Learn & Burn Explorers Program is a revolutionary approach to mental health education

The Learn & Burn Explorers Program is the first in the field to gamify mental health education through plot-driven educational videos, escape-room style games, physical activity challenges, and growth mindset missions.

Mental health support is a human right. Unfortunately, traditional therapy remains out of reach for most children. Without the necessary resources, many students struggling with mental health issues go unnoticed, falling through the cracks due to restrictive access to services.

In 2020, a pivotal study revealed that anxiety and depression among children and adolescents doubled following the pandemic. One in four children experienced depressive symptoms, while one in five showed signs of anxiety (Loades et al., 2020). These findings highlight the severe psychological impact of the pandemic and other social stressors.

Despite the growing mental health needs of students, support systems within schools are alarmingly inadequate. Many schools try to address these issues by incorporating social-emotional learning (SEL) programs. However, traditional SEL programs often focus on character development, neglecting practical tools and skills for emotional regulation and behavioral change.

The Problem

A large number of students struggle with anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues that remain unaddressed. As a result, chronic absenteeism rates and problems with student engagement have nearly tripled since 2020. Students who feel academically behind, have mental health difficulties, and feel isolated often avoid going to school. This causes them to fall further behind academically and experience worsening mental health challenges.

The escalating mental health crisis among youth has created a surging demand for therapeutic services, ironically leading to a shortage that widens the gap between children's needs and access to support; therefore, we advocate that mental health education and information be recognized as a fundamental human right, not a privilege limited to those able to obtain professional care.
