Partnering with academic institutions to engage
and inspire the men they serve, breaking down
the stigma around seeking help and increasing
the utilization of available services.

MANUAL was designed by public health professionals, behavior change
experts, and higher education professionals to improve the academic
outcomes and overall wellbeing of young men on your campus. Through
targeted communication and evidence-based tactics, we effectively bridge
the gap between the services and support provided by our partners and the
male-indentifying students who so often attempt to push ahead on their own.

Trusted Partners

MANUAL partners with 30+ organizations and tens of thousands of young men.

We are proud to serve a diverse range of clients that recognize the unique challenges involved in connecting with and inspiring young men today. These institutions include colleges and universities, fraternities, high schools, businesses, and trade organizations.

From Our Partners

“MANUAL packages content in a way that affirms men’s experiences, and serves as an ear and voice of reassurance, which advance men’s health literacy. From my perspective, this combination is both unique and needed in our field.”

“The MANUAL Care Team have been exceptional at serving out its mission, “Inspire men to be the best versions of themselves.” As simple as that may read, MANUAL’s approach to inspiring men to be the best versions of themselves is more than what most universities, businesses, and corporations are currently doing. This simple yet extremely informative platform MANUAL operates is a service that is needed and should be highly considered for all institution types, businesses, and small-large corporations.”

The support that MANUAL provides has been invaluable for my mental well-being and has provided me with direction and comfort in the stressful and hectic lives I and almost every other college student have. As a result, I have seen personal growth in mindfulness, stress management tools, and maturity when facing career paths and other major personal decisions. I strongly recommend MANUAL, and I assure you that your colleges’ male students will greatly benefit from MANUAL’s services as a bridge between them and your campus’s services.
