What One Mind at Work does

One Mind at Work is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit membership organization launched in 2017 as a program of One Mind (EIN 68-0359707) by co-founders Garen Staglin and the Honorable Patrick Kennedy. It targets enterprise business leaders and organizations seeking to measure, improve, and benchmark workforce mental health programs, operating with a small core team of six employees out of Rutherford, California.

The organization's central technology is the Mental Health at Work Index, positioned as a first-of-its-kind assessment of organizational-level mental health initiatives, built in partnership with Columbia University's Mental Health + Work Design Lab and Ethisphere. The Index applies a 3P Framework (Protection, Promotion, Provision) to help member organizations score program maturity, prioritize investment, and benchmark against peers. Adjacent offerings include a Member Portal, Workplace Mental Health Education resources, Coalitions for cross-employer collaboration, the One Mind at Work Global Forum, and the Lived Experience Council advisory initiative. Supporting programs under the parent One Mind umbrella (Rising Star Awards grants, Science Leaders Program, One Mind Accelerator portfolio) extend the research and innovation footprint.

Commercially, One Mind at Work functions as a subscription/dues-based membership association rather than a transactional software vendor. Members include named Guiding Council enterprises such as Accenture, Bank of America, Capital Group, Carlyle, FTV Capital, General Catalyst, Jardine Matheson Group, Mars, Inc., O'Melveny and Myers, Oscar Health, Otsuka America Pharmaceutical, and URAC, alongside Bristol Myers Squibb as a supporter. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales aimed at C-suite and HR leadership, with supporting content marketing via onemind.org, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, email, and the annual Global Forum event. In 2026 the organization earned the Candid Platinum Seal of Transparency and a Charity Navigator Four-Star Rating, signaling mainstream nonprofit accountability credentials.
