Join Cartwheel to help tackle the student mental health crisis. Kids spend most of their days in the classroom. And teachers and staff, who play a vital role in their development, are often the first to notice when something is off. But with 1 in 5 young people struggling with mental health, schools are getting crushed by a downward spiral in student crises and staff burnout.With large increases in federal funding for schools and the rise of telehealth, schools are reimagining what mental health support can look like. Cartwheel is an early-stage startup building technology-enabled mental health services that put schools at the center. We see our role as supporting on-campus counselors, psychologists, and school social workers who see kids every day. Instead of going around them, we collaborate with them. This means: Earlier interventionHigher student and family engagement in careBetter coordination among the trusted adults in a student's life Kids shouldn't just aspire to get out of bed and drag themselves to class. They should be able to experience joy. They deserve to envision and build a life they're excited to live. If you join Cartwheel, you'll help make this vision a reality for millions of students across the country. We're backed by top investors including Menlo Ventures, Reach Capital, General Catalyst, BoxGroup, and Able Partners, and we're looking for mission-driven teammates to join our team.ABOUT THE ROLECartwheel is a successful and growing telehealth platform revolutionizing access to mental health care for schools, students, and families.
