About Us
SelfSuffi was founded with one goal in mind: to empower mission-driven organizations with the tools they need to connect people to critical resources—quickly, securely, and with dignity. We believe social challenges shouldn’t be bottlenecked by outdated systems, and we’re building the infrastructure to fix that.

Solving Systems, Not Just Symptoms
At SelfSuffi, our mission is to help organizations identify and address the full spectrum of social needs—across housing, food, income, mental health, and more—through smart, human-centered technology.
We believe the people doing the work—nonprofits, colleges, workforce teams, and healthcare providers—deserve better tools. That’s why we created a platform that reduces administrative burden, improves service accuracy, and equips staff to focus on outcomes, not paperwork.
Our platform was built in collaboration with the communities and organizations who know the gaps best—and we remain rooted in that partnership as we grow.
