About Vanna Health

At Vanna Health, we believe that a sense of belonging and engagement in the community is the foundation for improving overall health and wellbeing for individuals with serious mental illness. We help people living with serious mental illness thrive by strengthening the community ecosystem around them. Through innovative payment models and technology, Vanna Health promotes collaboration across existing behavioral health and primary care providers, hospitals, payers, clubhouses and other community based organizations. Additionally, Vanna Health can deploy our own top quality providers and case managers, as needed, in areas where there may be a shortage of resources.

Vanna Health was founded in 2021 by a team of mission-driven entrepreneurs, working in close partnership with payers, providers, and community based organizations to promote collaboration and improve outcomes while driving down costs. We are committed to the goal of supporting all individuals with culturally competent care regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or gender identity. With modern technology, extensive development opportunities, diverse careers paths, and a culture that values diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, we are redefining what it means to work in community health.

About the Role

Vanna is looking for an experienced Senior Coach with a passion for supporting individuals with behavioral health challenges to lead fulfilling lives within their communities. Vanna Coaches are responsible for finding and engaging our members and then providing exceptional coaching and advocacy, partnering with our members to progress towards recovery and, ultimately, to thrive. This partnership starts with building a trusting relationship, understanding members’ personal goals, and connecting them to the best resources to achieve those goals. Coaches play a critical role in both physical and behavioral health coaching, working with clinicians and other specialists to ensure members have access to a high standard of care.

Vanna strongly believes in the power of human-to-human interaction. While accompanying members along their journey, Coaches connect with members in person–within their communities and at their homes–as well as by phone, text, and email.

We deeply value the insight you will bring to the team. We are committed to helping our members flourish by improving the recovery experience, informed by our community members and those who support them.
