Co-founders Kaitlin Scates and Jordan Sider launched Welligence in 2021 at a time when employee mental health was at an all-time low. Driven by their own experiences with mental health challenges, Scates and Sider created Welligence as a means to address the workplace mental health crisis. Welligence's curriculum is developed in partnership with a team of clinical professionals, organizational psychologists, and adult learning and development specialists,  and gives companies the knowledge needed to create a secure and accepting environment, which ultimately leads to increased employee satisfaction, productivity, and overall organizational success.
