The story of SANI Health begins with a fundamental recognition: for many families, identifying a behavioral health concern is the start of a confusing and often isolating journey. We saw this firsthand across the pediatric care continuum, from the intensity of emergency departments to the complexities of health system operations.

Our founder, Sanica Bendre, realized that schools were sitting at the epicenter of this challenge. While school teams are often the first to notice a student's struggle, the bridge between that initial concern and a successful connection to clinical care is frequently broken or missing. We saw families navigating fragmented systems alone, schools carrying clinical burdens they weren't staffed to manage, and students waiting months for appointments that didn't always match their needs.

SANI Health was built to close this gap. We are creating a clinical-led, technology-supported pathway that guides schools and families from identifying a concern to coordinated action, provider matching, and documented follow-through. Our goal is not just to provide a list of names, but to ensure that every concern is met with clinical integrity and a clear path toward care.
