Company info

  • There are organizations that place clinicians in schools.
  • Thrive is something different.
  • We are a pediatric healthcare organization built around a singular belief: that school is where clinical care becomes transformative - that a therapy goal in a clinic is a therapy goal, but a therapy goal in a school becomes a friendship on the playground, a kid who feels they belong, a child who gets to participate in the full arc of childhood.
  • Everything we build - our technology, our workload model, our clinical community - exists to protect that work and the clinicians who deliver it.
  • Thrive uses a workload model that accounts for the full scope of SLP work - direct therapy, evaluations, IEP writing, meetings, documentation, and travel - and sizes your assignment to be sustainable for the long haul.
  • Our AI-powered tools were built by clinicians who were tired of losing evenings to documentation.
  • They handle evaluation report generation, session notes, paperwork, and progress summaries - and they give our clinicians 10+ hours back every week.
  • The tools are continuously improved based on clinician feedback.
  • They belong to you as much as anyone.
  • You have a community here and are never alone.
  • You have clinical supervision through a role-alike leader, quarterly professional development led by Thrive's Senior Director of Related Services - substantive, school-based, and built for your level of expertise, and monthly role-alike communities of practice for case conferencing.
  • You have a paid Summer Intensive that brings the full clinical team together each year.
  • And you have peers across the organization you can reach every day.
