Honoring the Visionary Founder of Tellurian, Mike Florek "I came back because I really miss talking to clients. I miss their stories, especially the clients with mental illness. Their stories aren't listened to. There's such a stigma there, and I want to listen and ask them how they got here, and what more can we do for you and how can we make your life better? You have a right to be a productive member of society, and sometimes society forgets that." - Mike Florek, Founder of Tellurian, 1971 Mike Florek founded Tellurian with a deep sense of purpose. He understood that individuals struggling with mental illness and addiction often go unheard, facing stigma and isolation. Instead of following the norm, Mike chose to listen. He asked clients how they arrived at their current place and what more could be done to support them. This empathetic approach laid the foundation for Tellurian, where the focus was not just on treatment but on truly understanding and valuing each person's journey. Mike’s commitment to breaking down barriers between patients and staff, fostering a culture of openness, and addressing the real needs of those he served has left an indelible mark. His legacy lives on in the compassionate care and innovative approaches that continue to define Tellurian today. Join us in honoring Mike Florek’s incredible contributions to mental health and addiction recovery. #MentalHealthAwareness #AddictionRecovery #Leadership #HealthcareInnovation #Compassion #TellurianLegacy

From Aspiring Officer to Lifelong Advocate: Kevin Florek’s Journey 🌟 🚔 From Law Enforcement to Life-Changing Leadership 🚔 Meet Kevin Florek, President and CEO of Tellurian. His journey began with dreams of becoming a "police officer". A chance encounter with his uncle, the founder of Tellurian, led him to intern at a Bureau of Prisons program. There, he realized his true calling: helping people stay out of jail rather than putting them in. At 27, Kevin’s passion shifted from enforcing the law to transforming lives. Growing up in Ohio, he was blessed to avoid trauma. Now, he dedicates his life to supporting those less fortunate, ensuring they receive the help they need. For over 30 years, Kevin has led Tellurian with empathy and dedication, making a difference one life at a time. Join us in celebrating his incredible journey and our mission to create a more compassionate world. 🌍 #Leadership #MentalHealth #SocialImpact #Tellurian #KevinFlorek #Inspiration #CommunitySupport
