How Gobi helps you by doing the heavy lifting.
Gobi meets children on their level, using their favorite device – their cell phone. They almost always – literally – have it in hand. Our experience with digital and cell phone communications and mobile-based applications can help you turn a cell phone into your best communication and relationship ally.

The comprehensive Gobi Prevention program is based on the proven principles of professional drug and alcohol prevention. It’s designed specifically for children, and it speaks their language. No stuffy clinical jargon here! 

Simple tasks. Big steps.
The Gobi Prevention program requires that simple tasks are completed daily— tasks that lead to helpful discussions and develop substance use awareness by parents and their kids. These projects are quick and easy (think ten minutes per day), and responses are stored on our secure, HIPAA-Compliant server. Ten minutes can change a life.

Regular communication via text message
Children are texting all day! And Gobi helps them with support for making better choices, handling stress, peer pressure and goal setting.

Supportive Memes
Children receive positive messages with insights, inspiration, support, and even funny pictures to lighten the mood. We speak kid, and our content is kid-tested and creates relevant, easy-to-connect-with reinforcement through daily communications.

Parent & Child Conversations
Your involvement as a parent is critical. Don’t worry—Gobi will get the conversation going and guide you every step of the way.

Parent Support
You will receive program support through emails from our collaboration with leading experts in the fields of addiction recovery and substance abuse. On one occasion, your child will be asked to schedule a time to walk with you. Gobi will provide the topic and guidelines will be included to make the conversation as successful as possible.
