My Project

Aloha,

By funding this project you'll help students who have struggled coping with their social and emotional skills, by having friendly interactive opportunities to make friends, relieve stress and build cognitive and motor skills.

Video games can act as distractions from pain and psychological trauma, caused by student staying home during COVID. Video games can also help people who are dealing with mental disorders like anxiety, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Social interaction. . Video games distract from daily troubles by providing an engaging escape. Escape is a big part of the allure of gaming.
