Catalyst Engage & Encourage Community Platform

Why the Catalyst Engage & Encourage Community Platform?

“Social isolation is associated with an approximately 50% increased risk of dementia and significantly increases a person’s risk of premature death from all causes.”

- Center for Disease Control and Prevention - April 29, 2021

“Loneliness, with the absence of social connection and a sense of purpose, can have a significant impact on health and well-being, which comes with great social and economic costs. The impact is felt in the workplace and the community and across the lifespan of individuals impacted.”

- World Economic Forum’s Insight Report - January 2024

Alliance Care Technologies enables healthy aging by creation of the Catalyst Engage & Encourage community platform which helps adults to engage in group activities and provides a platform to Encourage the participation and interaction within the community. In this day and age, even the older members of the community depend on digital communication to get things done. Using digital platforms is even more important when we want to establish better communication between younger and older generations.

The Engage & Encourage platform consists of a Member Mobile App (Engage App) and a Staff Web App (Encourage App).

The two apps work together to enable easy and effective communication and interaction between the members and the facility staff. The Engage & Encourage platform provides a safe and secure online environment for the members and the staff to interact and to stay in touch … it helps the community to be a community.

The platform does not connect to any social media platforms. It is truly private and closed environment, this virtually eliminates the threat of unknown people posting inappropriate or negative content, trying to connect, or worse scammers who often confuse and deceive trusting online users.

Who is it for?

The Engage & Encourage platform can be used by any community, club, or organization which has a physical presence and wants to stay in touch with its members and coordinate group activities. This could be a family, gym, book club, community, or wellness center. Each new member must be confirmed by a Community Moderator/Admin before he/she is allowed to the community.
