Full Job Description

Coweta F.O.R.C.E. exists to provide recovery support services in the community for individuals and family members impacted by addiction. We envision a community that embraces recovery so that everyone has the opportunity to experience freedom from addiction.

Our work is more than a job, it is a shared commitment to showing up fully with compassion, dignity, and lived experience. Peer Coaches at Coweta F.O.R.C.E. are part of a highly collaborative team. We work closely together, support one another, and rely on open communication and mutual respect to serve our community well.

This role requires self-motivation, emotional maturity, and a genuine desire to use lived experience to offer hope, connection, and practical support to others. Many of the most important aspects of this work cannot be taught in training alone. They are reflected in how you listen, how you engage with participants, how you support your teammates, and how you navigate challenging situations with care and professionalism.

This role is best suited for individuals who feel called to recovery support work and who are motivated by purpose, teamwork, and service. If you are drawn to meaningful, people-centered work and want to be part of a team that values compassion and collaboration, we encourage you to continue reading. This role also requires that you have personal lived experience with custodial challenges surrounding DFCS involvement and/or a graduate of Family Treatment Court.
