Deep dives
Motivation Behind Starting Unite Us
The founder of Unite Us was inspired to address the fragmented nature of health and social services after witnessing frustrations faced by veterans seeking help. With a background in finance and military service, he recognized the lack of organization within existing services, which forced individuals to work through convoluted directories to find assistance. His experiences highlighted the pressing need for a coordinated approach, prompting him to start a technology-focused company in 2013 aimed at creating a seamless connection between service providers. This initial focus on veterans led to broader applications as the need for cohesive community support became evident across various population groups.
