The MyCuraJOY program has been created in response to the recent pandemic which has had a profound impact on the mental health of both parents and children. curaJOY’s mission is to provide personalized emotional wellness support to all families. Using a science-backed approach, which includes educators, psychologists, and the use of the latest technologies, the company developed an AI-powered learning software that builds resistance, confidence, empathy, and communication skills.
