Groups in Equip are a powerful way to organize and engage users—whether they’re friends, peers, participants, or caseloads. Groups help you streamline assignments, simplify communication, and manage multiple individuals at once.
💡 What Are Groups For?
Groups in Equip serve two key purposes:
Organizing Users
Assign events, routines, or assessments to multiple people in a single click. Groups help administrators and supporters work more efficiently by categorizing users based on shared needs or relationships.Group Chat (Optional)
Enable secure, real-time messaging between group members directly in the Equip app. These chats can be moderated, edited, or deleted by admins to ensure a safe communication environment.
Groups are flexible and can be customized to fit how your organization works—think: classrooms, roommates, activity groups, or support teams.
