About Rethink Benefits
Rethink's Caregiver benefit is the first and only web-based program offering clinical best practice supports for employees caring for a loved one with a developmental disability (like autism or ADHD) or undiagnosed challenges with cognition/behavior. We provide working caregivers with 24/7 evidence based, yet practical, training and guidance to teach their loved one skills, address problem behaviors, collaborate with the school and clinicians, and navigate today's complex environment. Caregivers then understand how to effectively work with their child or loved one and efficiently manage care, and report feeling less stressed and more productive as a byproduct of helping them better manage the root cause of their anxiety – the special needs of their loved one.

In addition, Rethink's Neurodiversity Inclusion Center provides employers with the required tools to hire and retain neurodiverse talent. These individuals are often the best qualified and most talented yet can fall through the hiring and management norms due to limited resources and training on the employer side. Rethink provides the training and access to our clinical team to ensure that employers have what they need. This solution is easily incorporated into a diversity and inclusion program or ERG.
