Yes. The price is per teen, so if you have more than one (first off, bless you) you will have to pay for a subscription for each. Right now, there is no way to add multiple teens to one parent account. To sign up multiple teens, simply go through the sign up process from the beginning for each teen. You will have to use a different email for your parent username that will be attached to each teen's account. But, you may use the same email at the checkout screen. If you don't have as many parent emails as you have teens, here is a workaround that uses a little known Gmail feature: Create one free gmail account (if you don't already have one) "example@gmail.com" When you sign up at Sidekick to Hero, you can add a "+1" to the email to have our system recognize it as a different parent username. "example+1@gmail.com, example+2@gmail.com, example+3@gmail.com" Password reset emails sent to those emails will all be sent to the main inbox "example@gmail.com" Keep a list of which email belongs to which teen so you can sign in and manage their account and see their activity log In the future, we hope to add a feature that lets parents add multiple teens to one parent account.

Not whatsoever! I am a conservative and a religious person myself, but Sidekick to Hero is a secular program fit for any public school, homeschool, or government affiliated organization. I encourage teens to follow the faith/political leaning of their parents. I feel that creates the happiest most cohesive homes. Also, some schools in some states use "social emotional learning" to push certain agendas. That's not what this is. Sidekick to Hero focuses on helping teens develop strength in four areas: Headspace (mental resilience), Emotions (emotional toughness), Relationships (being kind and service-oriented), and Objectives (become industrious go-getters!).

YES! Most state scholarship programs will reimburse you for Sidekick to Hero. Always check with your specific program before purchase. Sidekick to Hero is listed as an approved or supported vendor on various funding programs in Utah and Arizona, including Utah Fits All, OpenEd (formerly MyTech High), Harmony Ed, Children's First, and Arizona's Empowerment Scholarship Account. If you have a Utah Fits All scholarship and would like to pay directly through Class Wallet, fill out this invoice request form. If you are a part of a charter school or other program that needs us to contact them to become an approved vendor, submit a request by emailing joey@sidekicktohero.com. We are happy to jump through any hoops so you don't have to pay out of pocket.

There is no social or community chat features in Sidekick to Hero that allows teens to communicate with each other freely. The only time teens have the ability to chat with each other is during the weekly live streams where the chat is monitored by a professionally certified coach or during our new Social Clubs. Social Clubs are led by teen Club Leaders, with no adult present, fostering genuine peer-to-peer interaction. This setup allows teens to build friendships and practice leadership, social, and emotional skills taught in the program—all while having fun! Club meetings are recorded and monitored by my team, ensuring accountability and offering follow-up on any behavioral concerns reported by the Club Leader. This balance of independence and oversight creates a safe and enriching space for teens to grow. Social Clubs are an optional part of Sidekick to Hero.

Yes! When you sign up you will create TWO ACCOUNTS. A parent account and a teen account. When you sign in with your email, you will be able to manage your teen's account and see a full log of your teen's activity so you can see when and what they did in the program. This is designed to help you keep your teen accountable. Parents, however, CANNOT see anything that their teen types into the Challenge Journal section of the app. No one can see that but the teen, not even me. This privacy is important so teens can be free to write out their thoughts freely and thus create growth and awareness. Since I cannot see anything your teen writes, Sidekick to Hero and it's employees are not responsible for anything your teen writes or admits in the Challenge Journal.

Monthly prizes consist mostly of Amazon Gift Cards of varying amounts, depending on the teen's level in Sidekick to Hero. Gift Cards are sent to the parent's email attached to their teen's account. Customer stickers of their avatars and other S2H swag can also be prizes.

You know your teen the best, so you know how to best motivate them. But parents that have seen the best results with their teens in Sidekick to Hero make it an expectation and a routine to sign in and use the program 2-5 times a week. Some parents attach rewards or incentives, others leave it to their teen and they do it on their own. Parents can join our Sidekick to Hero Parents Facebook Group to chat with other parents about how they get their teen to use it.

Occasionally, Sidekick to Hero offers complimentary 1:1 coaching sessions for teens, available on a first-come, first-served basis. Parents can sign up their teens, and afterward, teens may choose whether their session replay is shared in the Sidekick to Hero app for others to learn from. Participation in sharing is completely optional and based on the teen’s comfort level. For regular 1:1 coaching, the best option is to join my Drop-In Coaching program, which provides affordable, casual coaching for teens and their families on a monthly basis.

Right now, the Parent Portal does not have access to the full app. We encourage parents to sign in with their teen and watch the first couple of videos together so you can get a feel for the tone and lessons taught. Parents can preview four lessons from the app here! It will give you a good idea of the content and tone in the program. Show it to your teen to get them on board!

Yes! You can set up an organizational account for your homeschool co-op, microschool, charter school, or private school at a discounted annual rate. Please send all inquiries to joey@sidekicktohero.com.
