CFO's Five Pillars of Success

BASIC SAFETY NET SERVICES

At CFO, we know if a person’s most basic needs aren’t met, they are not focused on personal growth. We help stabilize lives.

PEER SUPPORT

Recovery is possible at CFO. Our staff, who are also in recovery, provides essential support to those navigating personal challenges. Peer support fosters positive change.

WELLNESS AND RECOVERY

Recovery is possible by working through challenges. At CFO, our team of empathetic peers use tools such as art and journaling to help facilitate healing and growth.

EMPLOYMENT SERVICES

Our Employment team is poised to assist in your job search efforts, whether you are unemployed, underemployed, or just looking for a new opportunity. Our programs are available for everyone in the community. We are happy to help.

VIRTUAL SUPPORT

CFO’s virtual support groups, offered Monday through Saturday, offer a special way to meet new people in your community.

JOIN US

We are here to walk beside you as you strive for success. We are honored to do so. See you soon.
