Velago is a school mental-health referral platform operated by the Mental Health Initiative for South Asians (MHISA). When a school counselor shares care provider options with a parent or guardian, the guardian gets a private link to a secure Velago page. On that page they can choose to get text updates about the referral.
How signing up works
- Texts are optional. Guardians can choose a provider without signing up.
- The guardian enters their own mobile number and checks a box that starts unchecked, agreeing to the statement shown in the form below.
- We save the number, the exact words they agreed to, and when they agreed, as a record of consent.
- After signing up, the guardian gets a confirmation text. After that, texts are only about that student's referral, such as reminders that provider options are waiting and updates on the guardian's choice. No marketing is ever sent.
- Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any text to opt out, or HELP for help. Guardians can also stop texts from the same page.
- Mobile numbers and text-message opt-in data are never sold or shared with third parties for marketing purposes. See our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
The form guardians see
Each guardian's page is private, so this is a copy of the form as it appears there, in English and Spanish. Numbers entered on this page are not saved and no texts are sent.
