Supportal enables people who are coping with difficult health problems or life circumstances to connect on anonymous phone calls with similarly situated people at the push of a button!

Here’s how Supportal works: (1) a user joins a group that fits his/her circumstances (e.g., cancer, infertility, alcoholism/addiction, combat PTSD, HIV/AIDS, depression, anxiety); (2) when the user feels like talking to another member of the same group, he/she presses the “Make a Call” button from the group page, which connects him/her to an outside telephone conference line; (3) once a call is initiated, other group members receive a push notification, alerting them that someone from their group is waiting to talk; (4) the first group member to respond to the push notification gets connected to the same outside conference line where the initial caller is waiting to talk; (5) subsequent group members who respond to the push notification will be paired off on separate calls with each other; (6) because users call into an outside conference line, neither caller can see the other’s phone number, so the conversation is anonymous.

Supportal’s goal is to help people help each other!
