Empowering Teens to Lead the Conversation

Created by teens for teens, the HereNow app lets teens connect with other teens to share their stories and find real answers to their mental health questions and concerns.

HereNow is a teen-led community for mental health and wellness. Created by teens for teens, the HereNow app is a new way for teens to connect with other teens to share their stories and find real answers to their mental health questions and concerns.

The HereNow app allows teens to:

  • Ask questions about mental health and get REAL, personalized answers from professionals and other teens.
  • Share articles, videos, and art that inspire you and help you build resilience, or you think others need to see.
  • Read articles and content written by teens about tons of topics — including failure, test anxiety, and depression.
  • Connect to mental health and wellness events for teens in their communities.

App Highlights

Articles written by teens for teens: Teens can publish articles and reach thousands of other teens hoping to be inspired or feel less alone.

A wide range of mental health topics faced by teens: If teens are looking for information on a variety of topics, our archives can provide them with some much-needed support.

Ask questions & get REAL, personalized answers: Teens can ask questions that will be answered by social workers and teen leaders. Their peers can also comment to provide support, too!

Share Online Resources: By sharing articles, memes, videos, talks, and art about mental health, wellness, and resilience, teens will create a clearing house of content on the internet that inspires and empowers them.

Mental Health Events: Teens can look up events across the country hosted by Jewish Organizations on mental health, wellness, and resilience. If you are hosting an event on mental health, we can help you get the word out!
