The ripple effect
Traditional measures, such as progression rates, deferrals, satisfaction surveys, and retention of students and staff, are important indicators of your organisation’s overall wellbeing, but there’s much more to the story.
Sonder is measuring the "ripple effect" of mental and physical health issues. We define this as an unforseen burden placed on staff and fellow students. The ripple effect is not something to be ignored. When untreated, unexpected costs will arise.
A single access point for
all of your support systems
Navigating the ecosystem of support is hard. It’s reported to be the primary reason for students not seeking help for issues like assault, anxiety, depression and suicidal ideation.
Last year, more than 94% of students who experienced assault or harassment didn’t report it. This is because 1 in 2 students didn’t know the formal path for reporting harassment. [Source]
Sonder’s human centric approach is designed with early and proactive support at its heart. A recent survey indicated 70% of higher education students across Australia would otherwise not have asked for help unless Sonder was available to them. Instead, they would be suffering in silence, exacerbating the personal impact and the ripple effect on those around them.
