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.

Take a Breath, Take a Step: Self-Care in the Job Search Caring for yourself is just as important as finding the right job. Whether it’s a quiet moment with your thoughts, a calming walk, or connecting with a peer, every act of self-care helps you stay grounded. At CFO, we believe that rest, reflection, and community support are powerful tools. You don’t have to do it all at once—and you don’t have to do it alone. Let your next step be one that cares for you, too.Employment
