Work With Ava
Career with Purpose, A Workplace That Cares
“You Deserve a Workplace That Values You.”
At Ava Health, we believe that the people who care for others deserve to be cared for, too. We built this organization because we saw what was missing in behavioral healthcare—a place where:
- Your work is meaningful, and your voice matters.
- You are valued beyond just your salary.
- You have the time, support, and leadership to thrive.
The Vision – A Workplace That Feels Like Home
“We’re Changing Behavioral Healthcare. And We Need You.”
Ava Health was founded on one core belief:
When the people providing care feel valued and supported, the people receiving care get the best outcomes.
No burnout. No toxic environments. Just a place where you can do your best work.
In five years, Ava Health will be the name that providers, professionals, and communities trust for quality care.
Every team member is a part of shaping the future of behavioral health.
When you work here, you’re not just doing a job—you’re helping to build something better.
The Values –
What We Stand For
“We don’t just hire anyone. If these values resonate, you’ll thrive here.”

- Service – We serve our clients, our community, and each other—with integrity, kindness, and respect.
- Purpose – We believe this work matters. We don’t punch the clock—we show up to make a difference.
A Culture of Curiosity:
“Curiosity is Required Here. No One Has All the Answers.”
- If you don’t understand something, ask.
- If you see a better way to do something, say it.
- If you think we’re missing something, bring it up.
No egos. No ‘this is how we’ve always done it.’ Just a team that wants to build something that actually works.
“The second we stop being curious, we stop getting better.”
