About RethinkFirst
RethinkFirst was founded in 2007 with a mission to provide scalable, evidence-based autism treatment training tools and caregiver supports to an underserved population. In 2010, Rethink launched its first solution, a suite of special needs and behavior management offerings, to support K-12 education. Over time, we expanded our offerings to support the entire behavioral health community by adding solutions in the employer (RethinkCare), provider (RethinkBH), and payor (RethinkFutures) industries, and to drive whole child wellness and success in education (RethinkEd).
Today, we are proud to have almost 500 team members supporting more than 2,000 customers worldwide as we work together to strengthen our communities and help every individual reach their potential.
RethinkFirst is transforming the behavioral health landscape by inspiring and empowering individuals with behavioral health challenges and those who support them. We continue to invest in data science, analytics, and technology that improve outcomes and enable value-based care.
