Marigold Health

Marigold is an anonymous social network where people with mental health & substance use conditions support each other.

Our Values

Authenticity: Everyone’s experiences are valuable - we want you to speak from the heart. Without diversity in our backgrounds and thoughts, we will fail.

Candor: We work on an entrenched, complicated problem. Egos are checked at the door - we optimize for learning. The best ideas come through iteration and debate, and the highest performing teams have a persistent commitment to transparency.

Ambition: Mental illness touches the life of every single person reading this message - our goal is to affect change at scale. We respect and look for vision, but paired with it, the grit to follow-through.

Our Service Delivery Principles

Member-directed: Our services are led by our members, those who choose to participate in our program(s).

Person-centered: Each member has their own story, cultural identity, & unique needs. We support our members’ journey to a life that is personally purposeful and meaningful.

Trauma-informed: Lived experiences impact us all. Through member guidance, we work to make our collaborations safe(r).

Mutual Aid: We connect Members with each other to share experiences, resources, and solutions for the benefit of the community as a whole.

Collaboration & Coordination: We engage other providers and agencies, as well as the family & friends of our members, so members can access all they need to be well.

Outcomes-oriented: Peer support is a rapidly growing field that we aspire to advance through new best practices & person-centered technology.
