Responsive Messaging for COVID-19 Support

by Human Agency
Team Lead: Brendan Lind


Millions are navigating a rapidly changing and overburdened social safety net for the first time. As the impact of COVID-19 unfolds, many who should be screened for the virus are unable to or don’t know what to look for. To be truly effective, community-wide screening must be quick to adapt, cheap to deploy, and accessible to all. Information must be available to people in the ways that work best for them, regardless of the devices they own or internet access. 

To address this, Human Agency is developing an efficient and scalable method of reaching beyond the digital divide to facilitate screening seamlessly across platforms and devices. Responsive Messaging for COVID-19 Support is an interactive messaging system programmed to help organizations, businesses, and local governments reach people where they are. The constantly shifting public health landscape means smart, coordinated efforts are critical to mitigating the negative effects of the pandemic.
