Problem
Individuals dealing with mental health or substance use disorders often lack continuous, anonymous peer support and face gaps in care outside regular clinical hours. Traditional support options can be stigmatizing, costly, or unavailable when needed, leading to isolation and reduced recovery outcomes.
Solution
Marigold delivers a mobile, anonymous social platform that connects users with 24/7 peer‑to‑peer support groups moderated by people in long‑term recovery. Certified Peer Recovery Coaches provide optional one‑on‑one guidance, using data‑driven insights from Natural Language Processing to prioritize topics of highest need. The service integrates with existing medical and insurance plans, allowing users to coordinate peer support with their broader treatment team without replacing it. By combining technology‑enabled moderation, personalized coaching, and seamless care coordination, Marigold extends support to nights and weekends, helping users maintain momentum in their recovery journey.
Target Audience
