Care Coordinator, Arizona

Join Cartwheel to help tackle the student mental health crisis

Cartwheel is an early-stage company building a new kind of mental health program for kids that puts schools at the center. We see our role as supporting school staff who see kids every single day. Instead of going around them, we collaborate with them. This means: 

• Earlier intervention
• Higher student and family engagement in care
• Better 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.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a team-oriented and mission-driven Care Coordinator to serve as a welcoming first point of contact for students and families and guide them through their Cartwheel care journey.

You’ll work directly with students and families to guide them through their journey with Cartwheel and help coordinate our interdisciplinary Cartwheel Care Team of therapists and psychiatrists to ensure students receive excellent care. You're a great fit for this role if you have experience working with families and are eager to help young people access the services they need. For example, you may be a former administrative assistant, clinic administrator, or office coordinator.
