Note from the CEO

2021 has been another big year of growth, excitement, and change for Positive Development. When we first started the company in the fall of 2019, we hoped to be up and running in one location and serving 20 families by the end of 2021. This goal was thought up pre-pandemic: before social distancing, Zoom calls, and mask-wearing were fixtures of our daily lives. Despite those additional challenges, we are going to end 2021 serving five of the largest cities in the country and over 325 families. Am I bad at forecasting or what?! In hindsight, I totally underestimated how well – and how quickly - our vision and service would resonate with families, advocates, potential employees, and health insurance partners. We are so grateful to our incredible community for your trust and support in 2021, and we strive to again exceed expectations in 2022!
With gratitude,
Mike Suiters, CEO
