Company Structure

• Ellie is a socially responsible for-profit business, which allows us to be flexible and responsive to our community’s needs.
• Many mental health and wellness-focused companies are non-profits or government agencies, which rely on the general public, grants, or large donors for funding. This model often results in little creativity and lower compensation for employees, promoting a work culture that just makes people feel “blah.”
• In short, we’re just people helping people. Wanna join the herd?
