Community Empowerment Resources (CER), was founded in 2005 by a businessman and a social worker who are still involved in the business today. In 2007, CER was awarded its first contract for Case Management with the State of Hawaii, Department of Health. CER then teamed up with Hawaii Certified Peer Specialists, Psychologists, Psychiatrists, Nurses, Administrative Professionals, Social workers, and Case Managers, to produce a high-quality agency--a Team of Mindfully Respectful Professionals. CER's principles and values have been with us since the beginning.
