Plz by all means excuse my language but damn. Do you know how many people would get help if they could walk in and talk to an avatar from their couch instead of a psychiatrist office. This would make money … and help people!!!

3d modeller here. I’d be open to help out creating wearables for this project. In case the artist fee is provided all income will go to this project or I provide the assets for decentraland or whoever is in call for this project.

i think this would be a great project, but not something for the DAO to back. there is an incredible host of potential legal and ethical issues here - how are the volunteers vetted? what level of experience/ training do they need? how do you deal with medical confidentiality / patient privacy?

Answer those questions and then do this project, but i don’t believe it should be done through the DAO

Strongly appreciate the input. Possibly a smaller Venture first. As I said my friend is a Licensed counselor. I’ve worked over 5 years in mental health support and believe that this is going to be an enormous and needed market for any type of alit verse. It erased the stigma of in person interaction.
