PROJECT BRIEF

Empowering Conversations and Public Health Through a Digital Platform

Client

A health-focused organization addressing public health challenges related to STD awareness and partner notification.

Goals

Empower individuals with STDs to notify their partners anonymously while providing access to critical health resources and nearby clinics for testing.

Challenges

The project required balancing user privacy with functionality while addressing the stigma and anxiety surrounding partner notifications. Ensuring accessibility and ease of use on mobile devices was essential for this sensitive process.

What Was Done

Collaborating closely with the CEO, I designed a visually approachable and functional platform tailored to user needs. Key features included an anonymous notification system, comprehensive health resources, location-based clinic finders, and a mobile-friendly interface—all designed with empathetic messaging and calming visuals to reduce stigma and build trust.
