Cabeça Legal Project Highlights
The Cabeça Legal Project brings together science, technology, and education to address one of today’s most pressing challenges: promoting mental health among adolescents.
Through a science-based digital game, the initiative makes emotional well-being assessments more accessible and engaging for young people. The tool is designed to help schools identify early signs of emotional distress and vulnerability in a supportive, preventive, and non-stigmatizing way.
Our multidisciplinary team of researchers, psychologists, and developers is currently focused on building the digital platform and integrating the game into the system.
At the same time, we are working closely with researchers and partners to prepare for the practical implementation of the tool at a public school in São José dos Campos, Brazil. The school has requested our support in response to the emotional well-being challenges faced by its students, highlighting the growing need for preventive mental health initiatives in educational settings.
The support of our partners is essential to the continued development and expansion of Cabeça Legal, helping us refine a tool with the potential to reach more schools and adolescents.
Our goal is to contribute to more supportive school environments where young people receive greater attention to their mental health and have more opportunities to develop emotional well-being.
