At Flourish Labs, we’re on a mission to bring accessible, affordable mental health support to everyone who needs it by empowering people to support each other. We believe that peer support is an effective, yet underutilized solution to the mental health crisis. Peer supporters use their own lived experience of mental health challenges to help others.
We are growing the workforce of Certified Peer Supporters by training students in peer support skills, such as active listening, building rapport, strengths, self-care, coping strategies and safety. We’ll offer peer supporter jobs in our peer support network, launching later this year. Students who want support will be able to find Certified Peer Supporters in our network who match their needs, and book support sessions via our digital platform.
We’re partnering with nonprofits and colleges to bring the peer supporter training and job opportunity to students. Youth Era, a peer-led organization based in Oregon with deep experience in training youth peer supporters, is our training partner. We’ve been designing our program with Active Minds, the largest nationwide network of student mental health volunteers with chapters on over 600 college campuses.
We also offer a free app, håp, which helps students track the ups and downs of their mind, connects them to crisis support and makes it easier to reach out to their friends for support.
We recently closed our seed round led by Gradient Ventures, with participation from Collaborative Fund, Learn Capital, WGU Labs, Tiny VC and some wonderful angels. We are now hiring across a number of areas.

We are an early stage startup and a global, distributed, remote-first company. This means you can work from anywhere with a good internet connection, and we occasionally meet up face to face for onsite gatherings. We care about impact, not hours worked. Our environment is best suited to people who want to shape their own role rather than be prescribed exactly what to do, who are willing to roll their sleeves up to get things done, even if it’s not part of their job description. We’re looking for people who think creatively, try different approaches, learn and iterate quickly based on data, who love working in a cross-functional team. If this sounds exciting (and a little scary!), we’d love to hear from you.
We’re a peer support company, so support is at our core. We support our team members in the best way we can through competitive benefits and flexible working practices.
All Flourish Labs employees and interns enjoy the following benefits:
Flexible work time / location. You can work from anywhere with a good internet connection. Generally we expect availability during standard 9-5 work hours, but this is flexible. Additionally, there are several required core meetings per week, but we’ll work with you and your schedule to best accommodate.
Company holidays and winter shutdown. We honor 14 paid public holidays a year, and we close between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day.
At Flourish Labs we embrace and support differences because it is the right thing to do, makes us a more fun and effective team, and helps us build better products for our users, who are equally diverse. We are building our products and our company with people who have lived experience of mental health challenges, themselves and/or as a caregiver to others. We are committed to hiring talent with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences, and enabling them to flourish at our company by ensuring everyone has a voice and opportunity to succeed. We especially encourage members of traditionally underrepresented communities to apply, including women, people of color, LGBTQ+ people, veterans, and people with disabilities. We consider part time and job sharing arrangements for any role, just ask.
Equal Opportunity Statement: We are an equal opportunity employer. If we hire you, it will be based solely on your merit and qualifications directly related to professional competence. We do not discriminate against any employee or applicant because of race, creed, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, national origin, disability, age, genetic information, veteran status, marital status, pregnancy or related condition (including breastfeeding), or any other basis protected by law. We also consider qualified applicants regardless of criminal histories, consistent with legal requirements.
