TextToConnect is a text messaging system that implements a program developed by Dr. Sara Konrath at Indiana University in collaboration with HopeLab Foundation to enhance empathy and pro-social behavior in teens. The messages prompt teens to imagine others' feelings and experiences, and do small kind acts every day. A pilot study showed that receiving these messages can actually increase teens’ willingness to help others and decrease levels of aggression. We’ve recently launched the program and are currently recruiting teens to enroll at TextToConnect.org.
