Psyberhood
Psyberhood.org is an online community of consumer/survivors. In case Progress Place becomes a partner organization, most users will be clubhouse members. Parthoteach.org is a website linking free tutors with learners who can't afford paid tutors.
Partners
Psyberhood hopes to partner with 2 organizations: Progress Place and West Neighbourhood House. These are arms-length partnerships. Once every 3 months a link to Psyberhood: psyberhood.org is posted in the Pipeline newsletter of Progress Place. Alternatively, a desktop shortcut to that URL will be included on all the public computers. All West Neighbourhood House tutors and learners will be given a different link: parthoteach.org. When users follow those links, they are given instructions on how they can participate in 2 online communities, for Progress Place and West Neighbourhood House. Partner organizations and their clients use system for free. The launching of Psyberhood.org and Parthoteach.org will take place even if no partner organizations are lined up at that time.
Progress Place
Members of the online Progress Place community can submit posts and comments similar to a Facebook group. Paid moderators are employed by Psyberhood. Eventually online communities will be formed for clubhouses in other cities. Different mental health diagnoses, such as schizophrenia, bipolar, and depression, will have their own online communities. In case Progress Place is not interested in becoming a partner organization, Mike will seek permission to write an article in their newsletter, recruiting members who wish to become involved in founding Psyberhood.org.
West Neighbourhood House
Math and literacy tutors are connected with learners on the Parthonet server. All Parthonet users must first install the Parthonet client on their computer or smartphone. The Parthoscreen is used to facilitate math lessons given by the tutor to the learner. A simplified version of the Parthoscreen is used to facilitate literacy lessons.
Zoom Meetings
Members of the Progress Place and West Neighbourhood House online communities can get together using zoom-style meetings enabled by the Parthoscreen. Speech-to-text is utilized instead of video.
