We help peer support providers grow their teams and offer value based care population wide. As a professional staffing and SaaS solutions company, Compass Peer Services has created award-winning programs that have won the Jefferson Awards for Most Outstanding Service Organization and the University of Delaware 1743 Awards for Most Promising Venture. In addition to staffing and software, I help guide peer specialists and mental health advocates to find their dream job and help mission-driven leaders build safe, supportive, and resilient work environments.

If you are looking to make advances in your career, this webinar is just for you! Learn how to be an entrepreneur and start your own business or an intrapreneur who creates change within your organization!

Are you nervous about the toll it would take on your mental health to make these strides? Think it's too much for you? What if it isn't? What if there are other things holding you back that you could find answers to and solutions for?  We invite you to join us for this unique webinar series where we will listen to peer entrepreneurs all over the United States from all walks of life and with peer journeys that are unique and inspirational all on their own. Then listen to these peers tell you about their career dreams and how they took their dream and made it a reality. If they can do it, why can't you? The Peer Support Coalition of Florida believes that there are no limits to recovery. We intend to prove it to you!

We are becoming familiar with the many ways a Certified Peer Recovery Specialist can serve their community. So many organizations and so many different roles. But what if you dream of doing something else?  Or what if you dream of running a business on the side? Is there a way, is there a path that will allow you to be your own boss, set your own hours, provide your own unique service or sell your own unique product? The answer is YES, YES, YES, YES, and YES. 

What if it's an idea someone is already doing? Is there also room for you to do it too? Of course there is!!! YES Again. 

We want you to see how the peers in our series have managed to accomplish just that. But more than that, we want to inspire you to feel confident that you can do it too! The best part is, you will not be left alone after being inspired. PSCFL is working behind the scenes with organizations to find information and education that will be available at no cost to you that will teach you everything you need to know to start your own business, even mentor you along the way. Starting a business is an exciting endeavor, but it can also be overwhelming. We are finding and laying the groundwork to be able to offer you opportunities and pathways that can help you be successful in your journey.

We have so many things to share with you. Take part in our speaker series and stay tuned for the follow up to come that will help you turn YOUR career dreams into reality!
