SalaryWho we are
We are witnessing a silent pandemic of mental and behavioral health disorders among children and young adults. Today, 1 in 5 of children in the US have a diagnosable mental health disorder. However, about half of children who need care do not receive it from a behavioral health provider. As they seek care, families often face waits that are several months long and fees that are prohibitively expensive. Today’s healthcare system is failing our youth.
We have set out to rebuild this system from the ground up. At Handspring, our ultimate objective is to create a world where all children are empowered to lead resilient and fulfilling lives by making quality mental healthcare accessible for all families.
We are building a modern clinic for children and families. We deliver a care experience that integrates our digital platform, in-person clinics, and telehealth to deliver the right care, at the right time. We are backed by Newark Venture Partners, NextView Ventures, 25madison Ventures, Arkitekt Ventures, VamosVentures, and a set of world-class healthcare operators.
