How can we create safer, more supportive online spaces? Our #HealLA 2024 cohort member Communia is revolutionizing online spaces by creating a social networking app that prioritizes the needs and experiences of women. 🌟 Founder & CEO Olivia DeRamus shares" "On Communia, women are able to access a safe space to have even the most vulnerable conversations without fear of being further abused. Beyond that, they're able to build meaningful, long term connection with themselves and others using our unique social journaling format", DeRamus says. Communia's commitment to creating safe, inclusive, and supportive online spaces goes beyond technology. Communia envisions a future where everyone can share their stories, crowdsource advice, and support each other in a community free from trolls, bots, and fake accounts. Larta Institute is proud to stand with Communia and their dedication to fostering genuine connections and empowering individuals to share their experiences and support each other. 🌟 __________________ HealLA provides a free, 9-month accelerator program aimed at nurturing and scaling innovations that address healthcare insecurity, inequities, and lack of preventive care.
