Putting People First is reflected in everything we do - from our focus on doing what’s right for patients and their families, to the respect and consideration we have for each other, our community and the planet. This philosophy and our collective efforts are captured in a name: SageCitizen. Guided by this philosophy that values the health and well-being of our people and the environment that sustains them, we work with our team members to support initiatives that we believe can make a difference in people’s lives.
While Sage is developing treatments for brain health disorders that often impact an entire family beyond the patient, we are passionate about providing support for families that face other hardships in everyday life. Our focus is on working with essential service organizations to supplement daily essentials and with social connection programs that increase connectivity for those experiencing isolation and loneliness. From our successful collaborations with the Wonderfund and Massachusetts Department of Children & Families to provide backpacks and school supplies to children in need to writing uplifting letters to seniors who may feel alone, we are always finding ways to put our time and energy to work for the good of our communities.
We are also committed to creating a sustainable workplace, integrating green practices into our offices and our business practices. From recycling and composting in our company kitchens, to providing employees with “Green Transportation” incentives, we are committed to doing our part to help preserve the environment and mitigate climate change.
Sustainability at Sage
In addition to making an impact as SageCitizens, we believe that careful management and mitigation of environmental, social, and governance risks can strengthen our business, make us more resilient, and help us in our efforts to deliver long-term, sustainable value to shareholders. Our approach to science rewards innovative thinking and challenges the status quo. Our approach to ESG is no different—we imagine a world that is healthier, equitable, and inclusive, and we actively seek opportunities to have a meaningful impact as a team, as a community and as citizens of the world.
