Alonda Tann is helping Philadelphia students see their emotions a bit clearer through the lens of a Virtual Reality (VR) headset.

Tann has been a social worker at Mastery Lenfest Campus for 17 years now.

Last year, she introduced her students to VR through a pilot program. Because of its success, she wanted to implement the tech into her permanent repertoire.

So, she used the internet to rally donations and was able to purchase the necessary equipment. Now, she routinely helps students through the program, Headspace XR, available on Meta Quest.
