Education

Gain actionable insights on various mental health topics. Watch insightful and concise videos, complete interactive worksheets, and develop techniques to become the best version of you.

Toolbox Talks

Read ready-to-share Toolbox Talks to your team. Expand your knowledge and add new techniques to your mental health toolbox.

BuildStrong was developed by Lifeguard Digital Health and in collaboration with British Columbia Emergency Health Services and Provincial Health Services Authority, enabled by the British Columbia Ministry of Mental Health and Addictions. BuildStrong is intended for use within British Columbia for members of CIRP.

Privacy & Security

No personally identifiable information is available to CIRP. Aggregated data, such as the number of users in a particular region, is anonymized. Lifeguard Digital Health does not share personal data with any other person, entity, government departments, or service – including CIRP.

BuildStrong is compliant with all industry privacy practices and regulations and meets the highest global standards.

In the event of a Use Alone Timer alert, emergency services gain access to necessary user data, such as their current location.
