It's crucial to continuously monitor participants for any signs of mental distress. These signs may include changes in mood, withdrawal from activities, or alterations in sleep patterns. Encourage participants to openly share their feelings and experiences.

Regular mental health assessments should be conducted using validated tools and scales. Ensure that these assessments are documented and reviewed by a qualified mental health professional. Immediate action should be taken if any risks are identified.

In the event that a participant shows signs of mental distress, having a clear intervention strategy is essential. This might include counseling sessions, peer support groups, or even pausing participation if necessary.
B. Continuous Monitoring
Establish a schedule for regular check-ins with participants. This helps in catching any early signs of distress and allows for timely intervention. Keep all communication channels open and assure participants that they can reach out at any time.

Provide participants with a list of available mental health resources. This could include hotlines, online support communities, or in-person counseling services. Ensure the information is easily accessible at all times.
