Compeer Needs You! We have found that the best way to spread the good news of Compeer is through word of mouth. If you have had a good experience with Compeer tell others, if not please tell us. The impact the Compeer friendship has on the youth, adult or senior being served says it all!
Undisputed Results!
Compeer’s programs are routinely recognized for achieving measurable results:
- Our volunteer friendships build self-confidence and independence.
- Our programs save precious health-care dollars by reducing hospitalization costs.
- All those involved in our programs – the people we serve, volunteers and therapists – give us outstanding effectiveness ratings, ranging from 87 percent to 99 percent satisfaction.
Compeer is proud of its accomplishments over the past twenty three years. Recognized as a national model, Compeer received The Presidential Recoginitional Award from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, The Inaugural Eleanor Roosevelt Community Service Award, the Presidential Volunteer Action Award and four Points of Light awards. Also, an American Psychological Association task force highlighted the Compeer model in its publication- "Training and Best Practices for Recovery and Improved Outcome for People With Serious Mental Illness."
