For businesses, schools and community partners

Put a clear path to support where people already are.

Host free Lantern cards or magnets, fund community distribution, or request a free community resource listing. Start with a conversation.

Talk with us first

Free placement

Host Lantern cards or magnets at no cost.

A placement makes the Lantern QR code visible in a lobby, break room, waiting area, classroom, community room, or other appropriate shared space. Visitors can scan it privately and open free emotional-intelligence tools, guided pathways, and community resources.

Choose a visible spot

Tell us who uses the space and where a small display or magnet could be reached easily.

Confirm the fit

We will discuss quantity, format, timing, and any practical placement needs.

Receive the materials

We arrange delivery or pickup and provide simple guidance for keeping the resource visible.

Keep the path open

Your team does not counsel visitors or collect their information. The card simply points people to Lantern.
