Mental Health Resources for Colleges Responding to COVID-19

March 24, 2020

Kognito brand to sunset beginning August 2023

Kognito, as a brand, will be sunset, which includes winding down our library of resources and simulation products at the completion of our current customer agreements. As of August 2, 2023, we have stopped all selling and marketing activities of Kognito’s product portfolio.

We remain committed to active Kognito customers and will continue to serve these accounts through the term of existing agreements.

Communities around the country are adjusting to the evolving impact of coronavirus (COVID-19). As colleges become remote for the rest of the semester, we know you’re working hard to do what’s best for your faculty, staff, and students. We’re thankful for your commitment to them, and have gathered resources to help you as you make plans that serve the social, emotional, and educational needs of your campus community.
