Mindset Care Raises $13 Million for SSDI Platform

Mindset Care, a platform aimed at simplifying the application process for Social Security Disability benefits for those with mental illnesses, has raised $13 million in funding, led by Science Inc. This funding will be used to expand partnerships with community organizations, including mental health nonprofits and government agencies, to support the growing demand for disability assistance amidst a backlog of 1.15 million cases reported by the Social Security Administration. The company utilizes AI-driven solutions and a team of disability representatives to streamline the application process, reducing the time required to apply from weeks to under an hour. Mindset's outreach teams are active in various environments, such as homeless shelters and rehabilitation facilities, to identify and assist eligible applicants. This initiative comes at a time when over 17 million Americans live with serious mental illnesses and require substantial disability benefits. Darren Webb, CEO of Mindset Care, emphasizes the need for accessible and efficient processes to secure the benefits that individuals are entitled to.
