Empowerment Through Technology

MEET HTI

MISSION:
- Empowering Human Dignity through Technology -
Our mission is to harness technology and digital assets to empower and advocate for marginalized and vulnerable populations from a social work perspective. At HTI, we not only create but also support others in developing empathic-centered technological tools that greatly enhance efficiency through a multidisciplinary approach. This approach integrates social work, the humanities, and emergency response. We are dedicated to harmonizing qualitative, humanistic analyses with rigorous quantitative methodologies, ensuring a cohesive and authentic user experience that respects technology principles and aligns with the data-gathering standards set by governmental agencies and nonprofit organizations.
OBJECTIVES:
HTI is driven by a team of dedicated professionals committed to providing direct services to the most vulnerable and marginalized communities. With expertise in social work, public health, and a unique blend of academic and lived experience concerning the effects of trauma, HTI prioritizes a human-centered approach grounded in compassion and empathy. Additionally, HTI utilizes academic research and validation methods to create digital assets and field-ready technological tools that offer meaningful support to these populations. Our strategy addresses immediate needs while also fostering resilience, empowerment, and sustainable positive change. This commitment reflects a deep compassion for humanity, transcending differences, conflicts, or circumstances. HTI's initiatives concentrate on the holistic human experience throughout the entire process, from the initial development of UX/UI protocols and data utilization to algorithm implementation and field deployment.
