Option 1:
Cabana was built with measurement in mind. From federal research partnerships to active evaluation pilots, we are committed to generating transparent, rigorous evidence around workplace and Veteran mental health support. Our work spans foundational federal R&D, real-world implementation pilots, and ongoing user experience testing across Cabana Pods and Cabana Live.
or Option 2:
Active federal pilots. Independent university evaluations. Rigorous science. We're at the beginning of our evidence journey — and we're doing it right.
Cabana originated through federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) programs and continues to collaborate with national agencies and university partners. We are actively building our evidence base through structured pilots, implementation studies, and continuous data analysis across healthcare, government, and employer settings.
Our approach is simple:
Design intentionally.
Deploy responsibly.
Measure rigorously.
Each program is designed to generate independent, peer-reviewed evidence about the safety, efficacy, and user experience of Cabana's platform.
Evaluating Cabana’s impact on Veteran stress reduction, emotional regulation, and engagement in supportive services.
